Anyone paint their Nomad another color?

superduty · 07-08-2008, 12:30 PM

Hi All,
I have a confession to make. The more I look at my bike (titanium and black), the less I am liking the color combination. I should just get over it, but I tend to obsess about such things, so I am wondering if others have repainted their bikes another color?
I really like brighter colors, but I'd like to see some examples on the bike. I need to spend some time with Photoshop I guess and try out some combinations. I have a mental picture of blue/white or maybe red/white in my head, but would like to check it out on a bike. Anyone have any non-stock two tone color combinations? Maybe if I could get some color on the bag doors and not the all titanium only section there. I don't know... Just looking for someone who as gone before me in this quest. :)

Thanks.

I like that vest in your pic. Mind telling me what it is and where
I can take a closer look at one?
Thanks,
Dano

It came from leatherup.com. It's reasonable protection, and comfortable on blazing hot days.

(Psssst! Women like the Blue and Silver ones best!)

Pssssssssssssssst BLACK is really the slowest color,, BLUE/SILVER is Faster...

I wasn't happy with a two tone bike. Since it was half Grey already, and there wasn't any Grey bikes around, I decided to go all Grey, but before I took the tank off, decided that would be too much grey. It was done in two days

mmartin · 07-08-2008, 08:21 PM

Dang ya'll got better eye sight than me - I only see a bike in the picture

black is the slowest
