How about a two tone skim like mine, with that blue? Give it that classic old school look. Just an idea, throwing it out there.

 

Flat white!... blue looks girly, matt black is over done... i loved the gold you had before... look at some of hot rod flatz metalic line of colors... some sick stuff man that will peak your intrest... but please dont do the blue
*by the way, Jersey HELL of a job on the photo shop!!!

 

I was looking at it thinking that black would look great with some flat white flames with red pin stripe outline.

 

Thx...guys. I'm redoing the gold because the guy who painted it before did kind of a sh1tty job with prep and I lost a couple of chunks kinda easy. I loved the pewter and the gold but I never do the same thing twice just as a matter of principle. I think the blue looks great with the bucket done (thanks again JD) maybe just the original brushed battery band (not sure) but im probably going to do the paint satin/flat no matter what color. I absolutely loved/love the lack of maintanence of the "denim" paint, besides what would make it look any older than flat paint. I live in Springfield, MA where the Indians were made and always loved the old scouts with the crappy old looking faded red paint...just nostalgic as hell (because it is) Got a few months so just flip flopping. Black is ALWAYS cool but trying to think outside the box.

 

Muddyape - This is a pic of my old shovel... I guess you know which way I'M leaning.



Joe - You hurt me big guy! Girly? Girly?!? The actual color is just like the photoshop pic above but the camera didn't capture it right. It's an old 50's Panhead color... and for the life of me I can't think of ANYTHING girly about a Pan.

 

I like the blue. You might wanna play with a few different shades in each direction to find the exct one you want.

 

BINGO. flat red is my choice , not rust red, not metalic red, not burgandy, red Flat Red..

 

I like the way both look, that said having owned the denim black for a couple years I can pretty much guarantee the gloss blue will hold up better.

 

I like your outside of the box thinking cause your yellow color lookd great. But that blue just isn't cool enuff for your bike. I like the flat red idea, also I've wanted to do mine in a flat brown just haven't had the time to photopaint to see what it would look like.

 

Root beer, dark copper, anything but baby blue! But that FLAT black looks good too. That blue is nasty on a bob. Old bagger, fine. New bob, bleh!
