GSA Colour change

[fusionpaul]

Yesterday it was a bulk std triple black, but as i've got a Toffee Brown T5 & love the colour, decided i'd go for a matching bike, only rattle can but happy with the results, just waiting on a new set of graphics from humvee

Had a W123 in Manganese Brown , very retro!! By the way the silver panel tab should be behind the black panel

Looks good Would look even better if you paint the silver panel the same colour

Thanks for that, was not 100% sure.

They're next on the list but wanted to get it back together so I could make the most of the sunshine !

Different can be good - looks nice.

Quick question are the hubs black on the ADV triple black?

 

[(RIP) Johno23]

Each to their own...............but think it's far nicer in black

It's a kind of metallic dog turd colour

I'd kill to swap my 06 GSA junker for a shiney triple black, even if it did look like a metalic dog turd, well just as long as it didn't smell like one.

But I do like the look of it as it stands out.

I think it looks pretty good. I've been considering same (though not exactly same colour, maybe a bit more titanium). Is it just the tank top and beak you've had painted, and if so, what kind of cost for getting it done ?

looks great , nice colour , suits the bike

Get vinyl and a hair dryer then you can change it back again with no issues about £12

Yeah just the tank cover & beak, cost me a couple of spray cans from VW as its a metallic so comes with base & top coat. Don't think it would cost huge amounts if done professionally, will see how it holds up over the summer (if we ever get one) !

Cheers for the comments, positive & negative, in my opinion its good to be different

My van that inspired the colour change

Was that pheasant killed by the van?
