Doing the Valmoto race colors (the Daytona union jack decal is based on it) over the tank would be pretty sweet.

Be sure to post before and after pics when and if you do it.

I always found the black very classy but like you I think it's not very eye catching. One thing I was thinking about doing over a black bike was to cover it with a red pearl. In the dark it would look black, but in the sunlight it would look a dark, blood red.

What do you think?

Did you ever see the painted daytona that was the Union Flag blended into a yellow paint job but it looked like a fluttering flag. It ran over the front fairing but would look good scaled down on the tank. that would catch the eye. ....think it was in T.W.O. if you have any old copies.
