Wow, that gold looks awsome!

The only thing that would stop me from going with it is that the gold on the rotors really looks off next to the muted gold.

Hmmmmm.......

I might just have to have the carriers anodized black.

I'm gonna have to flip-flop on this one...the gold looks amazing.  It completely transforms the bike.  I would say that the red frame, black swingarm and rim-stripe makes the bike look mean/sharp/aggressive.  The gold softens it a bit and makes it look super classy and sexy....

now you just have to decide which woman you would rather have.  the classy, sexy woman you have to caress and whisper sweet nothings into her ear (in italian) or the young chick with the crazy hair and fake tits thats itching to be ridden hard and put up wet.

Well then in that case I've already made my choice as I married the classy, sexy woman....

I know you put a decent chunk of work into those tips, but I feel like puting a different color on those would help to accentuate the whole exhaust.  If you go with black rims, black tires, black swing arm and black exhaust, even with the red strips it would be one big muddy mess. 

I agree with the disk carrier issue as well.  The front wheel area has a lot going on already, so some contrast is definitely necessary. 

I really dig the exhaust, but maybe change the color of the wheels to a kind of dark charcoal (or just buy bst carbons  ) and have the entire exhast (not just the tips) blacked out so it pops a bit more.  I've always thought the swingarm looked good bare though.  It seems as though the right side of the bike should show off the wheel and the exhaust while the left should put more emphasis on the awesome swingarm.  Again, blacking it out would make the whole thing muddy. 

The gold wheel/gold swingarm looks pretty dope, but I'd make sure you had them done at the same place at the same time to make sure the shades of gold match.  You also have a smoth finish on the wheels and a bead blasted finish on the swingarm, which is going to make the powdercoat appear a different shade.  Just my $.02.  Glad we have some photoshop whizzes on the board!  It makes it a whole lot easier to visualize this kind of thing.  Just remember though, the guys who design these didn't get the job because they had a shitty eye for aesthetics.  I'm a firm believer in the concept of "less is more".

It's simple!   You need one of each!

I like the gold, but I'd say black swingarm instead of gold.

So for now I went with the red rim stripe.

Here is a pic.




I still plan on powder coating the swingarm black over the winter.

The red stripes look really good.

It might look good if you get your exhaust tips powdercoated the same black color that you get your swingarm done in.
