I think it's a grat paint scheme. The only think I think doesn't look right is the bright whitewalls against the creme paint. Kind of looks a bit off. I'm not sure black walls would look better but just my opinion.

I kind of think a black front end and other blacked out parts would look better than the chrome, and I like chrome...

Yea;that combo looks pretty good;kinda like the first year heritage scheme. Glad you aren't ruining that bike with that goofy lookin' 21" front wheel mod everyone is doing nowadays.

I almost did the same orange and cream as in the link - but I wanted a lighter dream-cicle orange. Like if you took an orange soda and added a bit of milk, if that makes sense. I changed my mind after seeing an old Jaguar painted willow green.

Not a fan of cream white and white walls. Black walls would look sicker.
