I've been thinking that an olive drab/military green type colour scheme would have looked pretty good on the GS, what do you guys think of these?:







With some dirt-bike tyres and upgraded shocks, I think it'd be a pretty decent looking and performing all-rounder. Oh, and a 14T for the front sprocket. Should be fun.

Not my favorite look,but definitely good looking!
I'm guessing these would be called metallic olive green with clearcoat ?

The monster really owns that look if you ask me, The Triumph is so so, and that other sport bike definitely does not.
BTW there is a monster with a gas mask for a headlight fairing, that too is cool, one of those "apocalypse" bikes.
Cool.
Buddha.

Mmmm, that's called 'Snot Green'
(Sorry, couldn't resist.
Colour, it's in the eye of the beholder eh?).

This is a random image i found... its definitely not military green .. more of a teal? - blue/green - ... but the tone of the colour is pretty close .. might help you to visualise the military green on the gs500 ??

I think that matte green colour, tan leather ribbed seat, wrapped exhaust and a caged headlight might be a pretty cool theme.

mmmm yup! ... cept wrapped exhaust! (personal pref .. seen lots of rust under them) .. 

alternative .. something like this shield



or something like this .. couple strategically placed pieces?

Janx, correct name would be Viridian (correct nomclemature, as in 'snot green').
I know... mea  'kin wiseguy! 

OD green (olive drab green) and I think they may have added the metal flake to the clear coat instead of the basecoat. Hard to tell, there's a sweeeeet hat at motorcycle superstore that matches this, not to mention the ammo can bags I'd want to  add

With proper belts feeding to the minimi .223 units on the front end? 

The ducati looks hard as nails

my brothers looking to mok his KLR 650 like the US military ones

That scheme would be awesome with those custom pegs with the shell casings.

I like the first one,.....

This one is really cool.

If you're gonna do that with the paint and dual sports, you need a matching pipe:

This wins. Ducati > all.

Pumping a bit of testosterone there boys eh?!
