What can brown do for you? I is subscribeded.

Wait. Scarlet? Was it red at some point and faded to brown? One way or another - dibs on the sissy bar!

What's the plan? Or are you in ruminating mode?

i'm going to paint the frame red,  tank and tail will be black. so scarlet seemed appropriate. do you want the sissy bar for real? i was gonna throw it on ebay. the side covers wee excellent, accept the paint on the badges. i'll probably sell them. seems a shame to paint over something as rare as that color.

That red frame looks freakin sweet. I am moving in two weeks to a place with a two car shop (aka garage), and now I am itching to break my 750 all the way down. Decisions, decisions...

Keep us posted!
