IMO, at this point you need to stick with orange on your lowers. I can't even think of how to incorporate black in the lowers at this point.

Hmmm.... Im going to the be odd man out, my thinking is a combo of both black and orange on the lowers.

I would stay away from any type of stripe on the lowers.....But thats just me

Orange will flow beter with your paint skeem....having the crash bar black may be enough black to complement the orange..Just thinking out loud.

One more for orange. The contrast of the black bars on Ummagumma's looks sweet!

Orange/no stripe. I don't see how you can put a stripe on the lowers unless it's an essentially vertical one, and that will be the only vertical stripe in contrast to the horizontal ones on the bike.

If you want to see two-tone fairing lowers, check out a picture of an '04 SE Electra Glide. That's the only model HD offered to my knowledge with two-tone lowers.

Good luck with your project.
