duttybwoy · 04-29-2003, 04:05 PM

Yeah the gold was on the 96 or 97 SRAD limited editions. The color scheme was Gold & Brown. I don't know about the brown, but the gold was

Not sure about what color ( to each their own ) But here is a site that has just about any factory paint you need. Never really compared price so I'm not sure if this site is a good deal or a rip. Anyway it might give you some ideas.

Just noticed that it doesn't show the colors. It only lists the names of the colors. So it might not be as much of a help as I thought.

Yeah just Rhino Coat the whole bike. It'll weight 700 lbs. but you'll be able to jump off at 120 and not scratch too much.

I saw a ZX7 painted bright orange, it looked sick (at least as sick as a ZX7 could). he said it was 1969 chevy camaro hugger orange- thats the color if you want to stand out, or if you want every cop in town to recognize you!

TEDDY.B · 05-04-2003, 04:36 AM

well for now i'm going to have to settle for black and silver but as soon as i get a little money, i'm going with "roulette green" it's the color of the triumphs, it's a sick metallic BRIGHT green.

here is a pic of the color(lously), it's hard to see from a pic, you really have to see it up close to see how sick it really looks
