haha, it was most likely laid down, fixed and primered. oem bike fairings/graphics are like a million dollars, especially kinda rare ones like yours. so whats the next best thing....? primer.

i prefer a solid dark color with polished aluminum/chrome.

my bikes paint is burnt orange with silver marblized tribal, the previous owner did that, i don't care for it. i would rather had 80's lookin green/white like they come stock.

but i've been thinking about a midnight blue.... maybe a very dark red.
