Maybe? For you guys- of course I will.blues2cruise wrote:I would have picked silver also, but he commented about the dirt showing. I think he has decided now anyway. Maybe he will come back and post a pic when he's got it all together.
Ladies- I've never been a victim of fashion...

edited : never mind... I just realize the choice you made..
I like uniform colors that match, red or gray would work

I'm still on the fence between red and yellow.
- Blue- doesn't look as good as I'd hoped next to the bike.
White- Turns silver with dirt very fast and wouldn't really fit
Silver- Known to be a poor color choice for safety as it doesn't stand out during the day, at dawn/dusk and especially during overcast and rainy days.
Black- not for a summer jacket
Red- Fits with the bike but is noticable a shade off, giving me three different shades of red... I'm also not sure I like having gear that matchs the bike. Doesn't stand out as much and I'd look like a tool (do we have an emoticon for being a tool?)
Yellow- Looks nice, brings out my natural colorsand stands out well. Just not sure how I like it with the red. It looks good... but not amazing.

May I then suggest the red or the yellow. Personally, I'd go with black but since you will be absorbing lots of heat/sun rays and therefore cooking (I assume it gets plenty hot there)... that leaves those two. Are the 3 different red shades that bad (besides the blend in factor) and does that bug you? The yellow probably looks quite sharp with the contrast.
Ya right,
there are only 2 kinds of bikes: It's a Ninja... look that one's a Harley... oh there's a Ninja... Harley...Ninja...
