Howdy all, I am in the process of repainting the bike as the original paint has gotten gross and chipped. I'm thinking a nice white stripe ( possibly with a pinstripe on either side of it) would look good. I mocked it up with packing paper, let me know what y'all think. Ooh, maybe even a double stripe...

I think offset left with a pinstripe would look tough

I think that would be a great look. I'm a big fan of the white stripe on a red bike or reversed with a red stripe on a white bike.

It seems it has become necessary to qualify my posts:

Select the words that apply to you.

I prefer no stripe but if your really set on it go with the one with the pin stripe

Pinstripe it is. Just gotta decide if it's gonna be centered or left.
The entire knee relief on each side of the tank is gonna be black
