.. not nice m8. Gloss Black is the new Red IMHO :D
A few people are saying black!
Maybe!!!
I would go for black as well.... gonna paint my bike like the supersport 749R..... With the red wheels and everything...

Hi Animal,
how you doing?
What about Anthracite or a pearlescent red!

Unpainted carbon fibre - gloss finish.
Well, I would say that, wouldn't I?

Ouch indeed!!!
Keep it the same colour, it's a bit different that way. Looks good too.

Tangellow....sorry...I've been watching too much 'pimp my ride!'
Thanks for you suggestions!
I'm thinking Silver or flat graphite... Does anyone know what colour that is?

Go for Blue, its different a looks the mutts IMO. There were the red bull ones that were part blue, but a solid blue one will stand out.....

Thats the one!
How about black - to match the crash bungs:bouncy::bouncy::lol:
whatever colour it is make sure its gloss,
otherwise no point in keeping it clean.
:P::frog::P
If it IS a Senna,put it back to it's original!

leave it as it is cos no one else will have one the same and it saves you a fortune for when you do it again. :D
Pearlescent yellow and graphite.....did it about 5 years ago!!!
I sent Desmondo a pic yesterday in the hope that he can photoshop my bike into different colours to decide what colour to go for... but I am guessing your choices are probably slightly different to mine :D

I agree with a few other like Rcgbob,
Put it back to the standard Senna theme.

No....Wouldn't go black...It's too elitist, especially that satin colour. What do they call it? Dark?...I'd go for one of those common colours. Mmmm...perhaps red???:lol::lol::lol:
Thanks Guys!
I'm now thinking Silver!
It was only a replica Senna!!!
Decided on the matt black, pic attached at the top!
I'm very happy with the job which was done by 4th Dimension (Not cheap!)

Its funny how some colurs suit certain bikes etc and I have to say I think green on a 916 does look goof, how a bout some subtle yellow pinstripping added as well!

Thanks! I need to clean it every weekend as a daily rider, I never had a chance to clean it properly before it went sliding down Haydons Road in Wimbledon...
I've just noticed your in Coulsdon!

Bob,
No way! YELLOW bits would make it too SLOW.
