McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
I'm planning to take the frame to the powder coater coater next week if all goes to plan.

I've been puting some thought into a personalised frame colour to contrast with the existing brown tank & panels.

I've come up with RAL 8011 Gloss Nut Brown - I'm thinking it's very retro I will be interested to hear what folk here think - I'm not a purist and in 2023 Signature Gold Rims might be added to the ensemble.

It's only an idea at the moment ..............................but so was my 400 blue frame.

SumpMagnet:
I can see where you are going with this ...but isn't that a bit close to the brown tank colour. Would all just kind of 'brown out'.
I would go for a dark chocolate colour. Not black...the colour of a nice plain choccy bar. Would give a bit of contrast without being black.

Laverdaroo:
Ted, dont do it, that'll look like a moving toffee!

There must eb better colours than that.

Have you googled 'Brown motorcycles, images only' yet.??????



PLEASE have a look and dont paint it Brown.....................promise you, it wont look good, honest (in a nicey nice nice way obvs)

Oddjob:
Mother of Pearl frame, would go with almost any colour

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
See what I mean about retro?

It's also a subtle statement about the owner think "Nut"

Imagine Kens new bike in retro brown

PS Can't find a RAL code for Mother of Pearl
