What colour?

I'm thinking of re-painting my bike. It's currently a rather stealthy gunmetal grey colour, but I fancy something a bit brighter.
Sav

It's gotta be Sprint Blue!
Blarno

I'm leaning more towards the blue. It crossed my mind that having my bike the same colour as my car is a little......anal
Matt

Sprint blue. I reckon having a 2-wheeled Blue Beastie would look great.
BeN

Any chance of pictures?

I'm leaning towards Kawasaki green, but I am a bit weird...
Blarno

Current colour:


I like the idea of Kwak Green, but I'm informed it's very expensive for the real-deal metallic stuff. I may have to find something close, but a flat version. I'm tempted by that flat blue that Fiat used to paint Coupes and Punto Sportings in.

Sprint Blue

It was my second choice after black when I ordered my Punto.

Definitely copper - would look excellent on a pushbike.

Leave it as it is. Originality is always most desirable in any vehicle.

TVR! TVR! TVR!

It needs to be washed! You might like the original colour

On the other hand, if someone photochopped it into the various colours, it would help the decision making process.

I actually like the gunmetal look, but Clio blue would be good.
Blarno

You don't wash an off road bike! That would be equivalent to buying a Cayenne! My bike is comparable to a Land Rover Defender: does it's job perfectly and looks better dirty...

So you're just gonna paint over the dirt?
Stuntman

I'd say leave it as is, too.

Can't help noticing that your bike is called 'The Edge'. So there's Blarno, The Edge... what about Adam and Larry?
Blarno

Yep!

No, I'll take it work and strip it with whatever solvent will destroy the paint.

The Edge is the name of the shop it was bought from originally. It's real name is Bruiser.

No, seriously!

I've cast a vote for copper orange. I think it'd blend in with the dirt just fine...
Blarno

It looks like Orange is the colour of choice! I should begin stripping down once my new parts arrive....
