ok, so i am able to get $800 worth of custom paint work in a trade...........what would you do/get?!

any suggestions for my speed four?

With your bike I wouldnt go crazy...I think it would be pretty cool if you just did the Triumph and Speed Four in Gold. I want to do that with mine in red.

Well, mine is eventually going to be fusion white with a pearl union jack going down each side of the tail section, with the Triumph logo and 'Speed Four' in blue. But that doesn't do much for a blakc and gold themed bike, So I'll jsut agree with Piersurfs suggestion...

something subtle is always best in my opinion, keep it simple. and show us the results of course :hammer:

I think black with a gold/bronze double racing stripe that matches your wheels, like the Ducati S2R. Or gold logos like some have suggested. Or black with a gold pearl in it. I don't know. This is why I can't do visual mods that well. Too many things you can do. :???:

You could always do something like these bikes, but i don't think $800 will cover it.

I work with the mother of the kid who owns these bikes, she just gave me the link yesterday.

For your speed 4. I have always liked the faded graphic's look. Similar to Black background with a faded black flame. Some thing you have to be up close to really notice. But that's me.

Looking foward to see what you do.

as you've already got some carbon bits on your bikeit seems a shame to hide them get a carbon seat and mudguard from jack lilly motorcycles and see if its possible to get the tank painted with a carbon look too. iff its done right it can look good Ive seen an R1 with all the body work in carbon and it didn't look too bad

I'm not sure what I would do to a speed four if I got one painted. Here's my TT that I had painted. It makes repairs more expensive if you lay it down after getting it painted.

gold ghost flames...or gold ghost prints. It would look perfect for your bike, and wouldn't ruin the street fighter image.
