A blank canvas and need inspiration

[Deadlock]

OK seeing as I stupidly fell off and broke a toe the other week I've had the bike in bits all over the house being cleaned, filled and sanded. Now I've got the nose, sides, front dam tank and rear cowl all primered up.

Anyone have any suggestions for a colour / sticker scheme?

I could always go back to the original Diablo look but I've never seen those big red sticker areas you find on the side fairings available.

The other option is to create something different, I've got the facilities to do my own stickers at work so have made

A) Budweiser (have to spray bike Bud Red)
B) Jack Daniels (do it black) and
C) Stella Artois (do it white)

Further suggestions welcomed, cos I've got about 2 weeks to decide.

Ta!

Ive seen a jack daniels colour scheme before and it looked wicked i would go for that out of the three. But i no someone on this forum had this bike and if i was changing the colour and stickers i would get it done like this as it is really nice.

[Deadlock]

Tis nice but f*ck knows how much it'd cost for airbrushing etc on the tank, never mind the price of everything else lol...

JD seems to be the easiest for me to do, black and white with chrome bits ie petrol cap, bar ends. Stella scheme would have been nice but there's inconsistencies in the gold colour I get off the printers.

maybe u could get RSVR factory Decals and do one of those jobs on your RS, just an idea.... would be 1 of a kind

Ive seen a Jack Daniels one, looked crap. Bud would be good, in a nice shade of cherry red. Also, in keeping with italy, how about a scheme based around some foreign beer?

That Oxydo rep belonged to Dave1RS off this forum. was spotless, but if someone else does one id do the red version to be different

I cant belive nobody has done the old Seedorf racing scheme yet, its soooo cool.
If I had an RS125 it would be done in these colours for sure.

dowzer, if you can tell me how to protect matt paint since laquer makes it gloss tehn i maywell consder doing that scheme, its between that and the repsol and i am more leaning towards the repsol, but ill have to pay someone to spray it for me becase me and gloss dont work. Or I could do the pog rep and get genuine decals from aprili but with white solo seat and white underseat panels to match... ooooo the choice

you can get matt lacquer, thats what i used when touchin up scrapes on my bike, try http://www.motorbikepaint.co.uk/

[dowzerr]

Just reverse the scheme so only the fine details (the Seedorf logo and dots by the screen) are matt black and the actual panels are gloss.
It would still look good.
Too many Repsol paint jobs goin around and none of the Seedorf that I have seen, its so simple aswell!
You could do that whole scheme with just vinyl and stickers and leave the panels black incase you ever change your mind.

dowzer my 125 needs a full respray, might do it matt and do the seedorf scheme, anyone think i should jsut so i know it s agood idea?

[Moorie]

i think the seedorf looks mint!

but if your gonna do it... get it done properly... with a good company... or it'll look very wankkkkkk!!

[VickersUK]

Ok i need an image of the lion used o nthe side of the seedorf racing oen (i dont wanan do the NGS one), anyone got one so i can see fi i can get decals rolling :)

[VickersUK]

The ball is rolling (providing I can get this matt laquer ;))

[Moorie]

may aswell get a spare set made whilst ur at it, incase of scratch etc....

and if u dont need them im sure they will sell :P

[Deadlock]

Where you getting your sticker sets from? I'd rather use a genuine set than make my own.

[matt2301]
