Very nice! I'm a sucker for orange and copper shades. The metallic looks really good. It can be tough to do without sliding it all over. Nice ride!

The edge color looks just like what I repainted my 05 800 classic last feb.. Looks good. I did a red base with "too" much copper pearl over it. So the guy at the paint store said. Enough to do an entire car.Click image for larger version

Thanks ,, Yes i did it myself,, a Gold metalflake base with candy Red and Firemist Orange pearl and metalflake, and 6 coats of clear . It really shines in the sun. so much so ,that its hard to get a realistic pic outside.
