    What would this paint look...

    ...like if it had some checkered flag in there somewhere? Like the old Triumph paint schemes? I think it's associated with the 'Ton-Up' guys.

    The GS1000S is one of the best looking bikes produced by any manufacturer.
    They got it right the first time, either in the blue/white or red/white color combo.

    do you mean to rpiant the whole bike differently?
    Or add checkers to the S paint scheme?

      I meant just adding a little checkers to places like the white on the front fender and stuff like that.

        I think the checkers are more of a british bike thing. The 1000s paint scheme would be hard to improve upon.

        Of course you could use pearl colors...Like this.

          Wow, that's a really nice piece. I can't wait until mine is that clean and purtay.

          ...And yeah, that's where I got the idea for the checks is from Brit bike paints.

              No, I totally agree with you guys. I'm absolutely infatuated with this ride though.
