For me it's one or two the others look too busy, the first ones dont seem to be trying too hard, bit like the bike really....

I like the last one, but the red stripes either need to be arranged parallel or at equal angles to each other.
And lose the red wheel stripes!

But the first one's nice and simple, quite drawn to that as well.

So what you gonna do?

I think I'm going to wait a bit until he has come up with more options....I think I'm going more towards something like the last one, although I do actually like all of them individually.

I like bits of the top one, but the solid red back end it too big a contrast.

And I like the 2nd one a lot, but the tank isnt working. needs some zebra there too, and ditch the VTR logo.

I think Benny could replicate the 2nd one by riding through some wet tarmac........over to you sir :)

My 2pence worth, just to confuse things a little more :wink: :)

Personally I don't think black goes that well on the bodywork with a black frame (my apologies to anyone who already has this colour scheme). IMHO I think something like the colour scheme below works better.

PS. If I did have to pick one from those posted I'd also go with the last bike in the 1st set of pic's, without the red on the wheels.
