Are you using factory forks? I thought they were a modern USD - hows that gonna work? Why not go with the fender made for the forks?

I think something like to '73 Z1 color scheme would look great with your wheels and other bits. Rootbeer brown maybe? Something close to a stock Z1 scheme would be awesome, even if the colors are different.

Uhhh, not to be a jerk, but I don't think any of those color schemes looks good. Weird colors and way too busy. Just my honest opinion. :unsure:

I think you need to go with a dark base to contrast the wheels, and less highlights/stripes
