    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Seems choosing a colour has been going on for a long time.Complicated by the fact I want to get 1 colour for both bikes.We may have a winner.A dark horse colour has come up and may be the winner.Suspect I will be chossing at the paint store:eek:

Yes it will.An orangey type yellow.love the colour on the first gen SV like this
SUZUKI%20SV650S%2099%20%201.jpg
 
Wow that certainly came out of left field! Should compliment your red leathers nicely though :D
 
Yeah somewhat,was thinking a blue like this
2002_SV650S_450.jpg

That really clashes with my gear though.That yellow was at the back of my mind for some time.Loved it the first time I seen it at my buddies shop.
 
Yep that blue certainly would clash! However, that blue is pretty much what I'm thinking for mine with one or two pearl white stripes...
 
Yeah it's a great colour that way.Since my wife's bike will be the same colour,beginners need every advantage they can get.The cheque I'm expecting didn't come today,no painting for me tomorrow:(

The picture washes out the orange in it.Way more in person.Noticed this in pictures to.Hmmmm....
 
It looks darker and organgyer than the pic.Seems like a tough colour for cameras to pick up the nuances of.My link pics look like that to.In real life the yellows have a definite orange flavor to them.Graeat a colour I can't get a real good pic of:(
 
If all pics look that way, it might be your monitor.. my old POS 15" tube screwed with everything I had pictures of, but the new 19" flatscreen is more true to life... Just sayin.... It sure looks good to me!
 
Screen on the camera looks the same.Bought my computer 2 and a bit years ago and it has a 19 inch flat screen.Like I said every other yellow with some orange tones seems to photograph without them.The Ford Focus comes in a similar colour,a Google search shows them more yellow.Weird but....
 
I think of it as my "I dare you to turn left in front of me and tell me you didn't see me" colour.:D
 
Got to my fiends booth today

Forgot my gun:o Used one of they had,a HVLP gun.It gave me fits.Something was making the paint glob and plugging it up.Got it on but it needs to be sanded smooth before I clear:(
