Z1 900 making my dads old bike look new *now Pics*

I agree with Roy, a black frame is always the best way to go. Matches everything, so repainting the bike's tank tail and side covers is all you have to do.

Yeah, after thinking about it black is the way to go for sure. Cant wait to get it all done and buttoned up

I have to concur as well. I have had the choice to powdercoat whatever color I wanted to and thought long and hard but black is all I could do. Its not that green would look bad. I have seen a few green frames but do you really want your bike to look like the batmobile? If you are going to all out customize your bike and spend your future assets on a paintjob then maybe you would do well to match the frame but I guess KISS works best in this application. I have a fondness for black and polished. These bikes are hard to beat in black. It's my unimportant opinion but I think riverroad agrees on this one. lol
Speaking of which! Dude when are you guys going to make it up to Chicago and ride with Forrest and I. This guy knows his neck of the woods with so many nice twisties and turnies that your bike will be happy to stay a while.:huh:

I talked to a friend of mine that just opened his own body shop, he told me if i do all the prep work and primer everything he would paint the bodywork for free. This got me to thinking, so i went onto paitworkz.com, and got the candytone blue paint, i know its for a 75 z1b, but i have always loved the blue.

I am also going to start on bracing the frame in the next week or so. I was looking but cant find the link to the picture of a frame fully braced. Anybody know what one i am talking about?
