nice and looks well looked after.

but that is a lot of Orange, with all the fittings like spring, oil filler cap, bar ends, brake hoses, engine screws, rim stickers, resorvoir caps. etc etc..........perhaps too much........step away from the probolt catalogue :lol:

If it is one of our members, oops sorry, but that is just my taste :wave:

The helmet sorta matches too - but I'm respraying my other helmet flouro-orange.... (for commuting, I saw one on the M42 yesterday - at over half a mile away, I'm not big on hi-viz - but this appeals to me)

It looks a bit on the Mustard yellow side to me :roll: Unless that Lloydies camera. I don't like the Black frame with that colour. Sorry vtrbaz.
Now Clives bike, that's tango orange :thumbup: And I actually think that has been tastefully done with subtle changes like the Orange sticker on the Black belly pan, And the silver frame contrasts the orange nicely.

how can you say the orange n black doesnt go on my bike then say the other bike orange with black belly pan does go ??
no offence to clive hes bike is lovely but when i see a black belly pan its looks like they are to tight to pay to get it sprayed . my belly pan was just standard black plastic when i got it but i think any bike not just storms look propa with paint matched pans

In that terrible pic of lloydies :lol: your bike does not look orange. I see more than one colour in a colour and yours (from that pic) falls more on the yellow side giving it that musky look. Unlike clives which has been tangoed, a more vibrant colour which is more on the Red side. And with the belly pan it's the subtleties with the same colour decal as the paintwork which balances it to the eye. I think maybe your Black frame don't help either.

But, I don't mean to offend anyone, that is just my opinion. Each to their own and all that. It's like what one person would call art is another persons shite. We are all individual and have individual tastes and preferences. But hey ho, you have a beautiful V Twin lump in there and that's the main thing :)

lol to be fair your all right i have gone a bit mentle on orange my brain has been tangoed haha the problem was when i brought it i hadnt passed my test i was running round on my little 125 (which was i also had resprayed focus st orange lol) and i ran out of money costs a mint to take you test now a days got to a point were i had to sell my 125 to pay for tests/lessons etc but i couldnt bring my self to do it . or sell the storm to pay lol anyway a whole year went by bombing about on my little 2stroker . So while the storm sat there looking pretty i just kept getting the odd thing like the tinted screen smaller indicators led light the bolts took my rear spring off and had it shot blasted in ktm orange lol gota be done didnt look right yellow
