Flat black with flames in orange red and yellow with blue pin striping. That is my choice for old school. Scallops are really nice too and you don't see them nearly as often but it is your bike. Keep the flames simple. Nothing tribal.
The more I think about it the more I realize how many choices you have. Maybe another color for the flames would be cool. I am really of no help here at all.

Doing a "winter change" Once I get it all done I'll post before and after pics. $50K is kinda steep!

The shadows on that orange bike are perfect.Not to sound like a dick, but I would take the flames on the bike over the flames on that truck any day.....if I wanted flames on my bike.

I have an 07 streetbob. Cutting front and rear fenders along with doing a lot of black powder coating. Want to do some old school 50's style flames on just the tank. Thinking of doing yellow to orange to red transition, but not full length of tank. Spent way too many hours on the web looking at flames, that now I can,t make up my mind and style. Any opinions out there? Even some pics would be cool.
Try Pat Paldino's website KUSTOM FLAMES
I just sent my tins to him.. his works and ideas for flames are very very cool !

Well, that just blew me away. I did a Suzuki like that about 5 years ago and congratulated myself on my ingenuity and originality. WTF!?!?
