Painting Bike: What color?!

So I was forced off the road last friday by some soccer mom in a hummer. I even kicked the bitches doorMy bike is completely rashed up on both sides, i dont really remember what happened but i know it was a lowside. I assume the tires caught and it flipped though cause both sides are rashed to hell. Needless to say, gonna sand it down and paint it within the next two weeks but i dont know what color!

Oh, my Si cage arrived two days later XD.

I was thinkin white would look good with the red rims, but my cage is black so black may be good too. What do you guys think?


Edit: this pic is pre accident for color reference.

its free to remove the turn signals

and that bike doesnt look like its rashed to me

if your gonna stunt it dont waste the money on a pro paint job anyways

leave it with rash so when you drop it it wont bother you, if its going to bother you, your in the wrong sport

Re: Painting Bike: What color?!

that's a pre accident pic, just for color reference. I'm not gonna pro paint it, i have a spray gun, sander and the works so i can do it myself. And as far as fighting the car, it was 2 lanes converging into one so i had nowhere to go.

Re: Painting Bike: What color?!

I was JUST watching the intro to roadrash on youtube before i read this post... kinda fit with kickin the door of the hummer ha ha. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xr2hw...eature=related .<---funny the "cool" riding that impressed people in 1994... Offensive driving on a bike is kind of a poor decision, but i cant blame you at all for kickin her door! when i paint my f4i i think i'm gonna go for a dark reddish color, similar to borne's bike. sounds like you came away un-injured, i guess you can be thankful it wasnt worse!

The car accelerated to pass me, bumped me, i couldnt brake as there was a car behind me, but not behind her. The lady obviously didnt see me and was thinking about passing the car behind me in her super kewl hummer. It was a shitty situation and i got the short end of the stick, but as far as the paint job goes, i just wanted some opinions on what looks good before i go buy some paint. I had an idea of what i want, just seein if anyone has somethin i hadnt thought of yet.

Haha dude that vid is hilarious, favorite part is the end with trophies, money and honeys . Priceless.

But yea, i only kicked the door so she would notice me and not run me off the road. Unfortunately those hummers are tanks and she eventually did.
