IMHO, the Brown seat on the Green Bonneville looks fantastic. Talk about a Classic Look! Very Nice.

Two tiny opinions further though.... Scooter's bike looks absolutely fantastic, but my perfectionist's pickiness sez" Paint the seat back and sidecovers green as well."

Maybe a Gold Pinstripe accent here and there to set it all off?

Why haven't one of us developed a program to build/color a fantasy bike here on the Forum... or have we? Anyone?

brown seat

Mark,

I ordered the brown seat from the 68 range last week, expecting it in the post any day now. My bike is a green/silver scrambler, I'll post pic's later in the week.

i've always liked brown and silver. nobody ever thinks of it but it is very classy imo.
i think green with brown seat is about as classic a british color combo as there is. definitely not the black/grey seat, just doesn't work. there is a guy in new york on the forum who with a black thrux who did a brown seat in suede and it looks pretty good too. suede is not for everyone though, especially if you ever ride in the rain but i think it steps it up a notch.
