Quote from: mavinwyShe also rhino-lined her cowl, rear grab bar, case guards and a faux "tank bra".  It looks sweet and should never have another tank rust....

ARGHH!! Somebody beat me to it..

Currently my project GS is matte black (primer with a thin coat of lacquer) I was thinking about doing a light spray of silver and then olive green over the silver with a matte lacquer topcoat. Then do the frame in a polish with a green translucent powder coat.. Still think it would look unique as all get out.

Of course I'll have to commit to a bit more wrench time (a bit less ride time really) to get the frame done.. not sure I want to.

My ratty GS used to be green (see pic).  Bad paint job.  I've got a red tank on it now so it's extra ugly.

Speaking of green GS's...

This guy is trying to unload this rats nest on some unfortunate soul for way too much, but his last two pics show another GS he has that he painted green...

hope this isn't anyone from the board...
LIFE should NOT be a journey to the GRAVE with the intention of arriving SAFELY in an attractive and well PRESERVED body, but rather to SKID in sideways, CIGAR in one hand, favorite beverage in the other, body thoroughly USED UP, totally WORN OUT, and screaming WOW - WHAT A RIDE!

A green GS with gold accents?  Those colors remind me of a Jeep Sahara.  

Now that green one with the red tank?  Very Christmasy.

This is probably my favorite sportbike. The only thing I like about it more than shape is the green/silver paint scheme. It hit me while I was looking at it that there was a post about painting a GS green/silver. DUDE. what better motivation than this?
