This is just a rough in. Naturally my wife hates it  ::). The plan is House of Kolor Kandy Red, Air brushed rivets and individual panel lines air brushed in also. The color and theme of riveted panels will be caried onto the tail section of the cafe seat, which will look a bit like the new Norton Commando seat with a recessed tail light.This is supposed to be a WWII theme with a modern twist. The motor will be red lower case, chrome side cases - valve cover - carb bowls - intakes - carb tops - bread box air cleaner - and all chrome allen h-ware for the bolts. The fins will be diamond cut and the main jug color will be black. The exhaust will be wrapped in black header wrap and exit somewhere just behind the pegs. These will also be matched exhaust with a special cross over that will unleash more power. Exposed wiring for the controls, etc will be run in stainless steel braid.

The wheels will be powder coated black rims, red spokes w/ chrome spoke tips, with a silver leaf pinstripe on the wheel edge. And naturally ALL alluminum that is not chromed will be polished to mirror finish.

The gauges will be completely sick as they will be one of one for sure. Possibly the hottest gauge faces I have ever made and will not make ever again.

Right now this bike has clubmans on it, and there are no plans for a fairing. Seeing that we have done the 605 conversion, installed a race cam and upgraded just about everything in motor and many parts in the final drive, this will BE FAST! Plus we ditched a bunch of weight and plan to ditch more weight.

I think the girl is sort of an updated WWII type. In keeping with that, I wouldn't get too lascivious. As long as you're making one-off guages; rivets instead of numbers. Girl on the face reclining and one leg is the needle going up and down. 
Dude- your 8 layers are showing!

If you change your mind I can send you a stencil for your side covers, I can't find a close-up but this pic shows it.
