REMEMBER, a “custom” color/mod on your bike may look awesome to you, but, if you want to sell... it may be a big turn off. MAY.

Original (available) color is always a crowd pleaser.

color for 72 commando
 
That looks very great ! ..... mostly I like black bikes though the Ducati just had to be Red ....
 
My bike is painted with a Toyota -Lexus color...My 2005 Tundra was "Salsa Red" it has a subtle amount of metal in the paint and I would describe it as a bright burgundy...the red was applied ala early...early CNW graphics...a little red on the tank,1/16 " silver stripe and the majority of the tin is black.The front fender ( small CNW ) is black with a big red stripe down the middle and the 1/16 " stripe around the perimeter.I like a bit of a different look.You can see it on Matts gallery
It is # 012.I was interested....what are you guys paying for 2 side panels 1 tank and 1 CNW front fender ? Eddie I am doing some interstate body work too....mind me asking....what do you expect to pay for your Interstate stuff....no body work or repair is needed...if it matters for a general idea of what I " should" be paying.
 
Sammy Hagar was right.
“Red! I want red, there's no substitute for red.
Red! Paint it red, green ain't mean compared to red.”
No metallic on a ‘72. Just red.

Oh yes you can!

Just too common.

Another black n gold Norton... yawn!

They do look good in B&G, but if I were starting from scratch I’d go with anything except that!
 
thank you eddie.................ford ruby red metallic it is for me ..i have a black and gold 75xs650 yamaha and a black and gold 68 BSA A65 so felt it was time perk things up....
 
paint shop guys say 2 or so weeks...they are finishing up a complete resto on a 64 Jag XKE coupe' in dark maroon....when i saw it i nearly busted out crying it is so beautiful
 
Might as well sell your home and buy the darn thing and get it over with
 
price is around $100,000k for the jag...i recall when i was a teenybopper a guy down the street had one it never did run right he parked it under a big tree and after a few years it was covered in leaves..
 
Great news Alan , you can keep your home and own the Jag ! ... yeah there was one next door to me back in he day that sat in driveway for quite a while before the wrecker came and just hauled it away .... sad ....
