I want to change my Vivid Black Rocker into black matt. I think it could be very interesting contrast to have painted black matt both fenders / oil tank / gas tank in comparison with rest of the bike chrome. Propably will also add some thin red line around gas tank, fenders, wheels. I will also put some black/chrome wheels. Actually i want vinyl wrap, not paint.
Anyway i just realized that the frame and swing-arm of my Rocker is glossy black. And i realy do not want to repaint also frame. Do you think it will look good? Not sure now, how other black matt bikes have the frame and swing-arm done. Do they have it gloss black or matt? I mean i do not want to mix too many colors. I just can not see it from pictures....
my bike is an '09 denim black, and the frame on it is gloss black, i don't feel it takes away from the rest, and to be honest, i dont think i would want my frame flatt, just cause the scratches and rock dings would be more prone to rust through im afraid, just my opinion
Rail, your Rocker looks great, the matt black is very cool.
I will contact the guys who do the vinyl wrap ask them if they can make bike. Hope they can, they ussualy do cars. I am little scared by the oil tank, do not want to remove it.....
