Possible Lo Rider Conversion.
First off this concept is about a sports theme added to my Lo. I have been thinking about this for a long time...so here is what I got in mind.
I am a huge Saskatchewan Roughriders fan up here in Canada. Rider nation can be compared to NCAA culture but with a few less seats. Anyways, I am curious what a green metal flake paint would looke like on my bike...and your thoughts? The Rider logo would be photoshopped with the HD and old skool font. I thought about throwing together a tank teR drop design...but that means white contrast. Just a simple tank logo would still keep a bit if a clean look. Oh and custom made Billet Daddys...if they can match the the alum with a satin chrome or duller of some sorts. Or should I keep the denim black and with the Rider logo? If that, then some slight green accents or pinstripes to tie in.
I arrive in town from work with money to burn! Going to stop by Airdrie auto werks and see what they can do.
Here is a pic of the Riders...

Ya Yankee I seen the flakes in real this winter...why it's so tempting. And Mal ya I know... Flakes looks awesome with chrome! Gut tells me to stick with denim black and accent the rider theme in.
Thanks guys!

Two tone it Flat black/flake green with white pinstripe
Or just do a scallop paint on the tank in flat black and green, keeping fenders black

Jose, your bike looks great right now. My opinion, don't add the logo or flake, wear a t shirt to support your team under your leather jacket and Go Bombers Go!!!
But seriously your bike does look great, what about some pinstripping in the green?

I think your bike looks great as it is and imo doing that would "cheapen it"
Cheer on the Roughriders from your couch with a green track suit on while I sit at home and cheer on the Eskimos
How about something subtle ----- get Story808 to make you a custom RR primary cover - but keep the design in black/silver

Check my thread here
And google CustomWarp Choppers, check the 'Ahmed' metal flake green paint he had done for me (which I kindly declined to accept and opted for black red and gold).
If you like that Green he would do a wonderful job for you and his pricing /customer service is hard to beat.
