Looks cool, bags and fender look great. Are you still going with factory purple ? Pearl black, purple and silver leaf would look sweet with that green bike paint layout.

Factory purple? My bike is Black Cherry Pearl which is more of a maroon but I guess I could see how you could call it purple. I am going back with a Black Cherry and a silver or gray.

Looks great! Are you going with a total repaint? Or will you try and reuse some of your existing tins? I just swapped my sheetmetal out last weekend, and can't believe how much better my bike look already. I still have to have the bags painted, and I think I'm going to two-tone my front fender, so it's gonna have to come back off.

I am going to repaint the entire bike. My bike is an 05 and has a few scratches. I also didn't want the headache of trying to match everything.

Good Idea.. Paint all at once. I moved and got parts repainted and have to pray that they can match the paint and style of the previous painter. What's the sit. rep. on the bike now?

The bike is getting the stereo installed as we speak. The guy does this work on the side and asked could he have a couple of days for the project. It should be ready Friday. As far as paint, I may have to hold tight a while. My club has some rides coming up that I don't want to miss (Dallas, Louisianna, and some others) Then I would hate to send my bike to paint during Spring/Summer. I may wait until next December.
