    I like Yellow and black paint scheme, so tank and fairing Yellow and the frame powder coated Black

    hmmm would have to be a special yellow though to make it stand out, i want something that people are going to look and go "wow" lol

    Yellow like this: http://www.specialistpaints.com/image_uploads/large/Yellow_Candy_www.specialistpaints.com.jpg

    you see that looks a bit too plain for my liking lol. if it had a bit of a sparkle to it or denser parts then would look ok

    I don't mind a bit of sparklein mixed into the paint, its just I prefer that bright yellow to gold, and if you put the right amount of black decols to set it off just right
