Great paint scheme, but I don't care for the "My Little Pony" pastel pink, blue, etc. color on the pipes. Ed

painting any of em well is inspiring for me.

Do you mean OEM color? I'd be interested in what you find with the 75 blue.

I've got to give Ram a kudos for this, The Z1 paint he's working on is for me, replacing the Austin Powers scheme on my bike with the more appropriate scheme. He's altering the colors to suit my taste but I'm still sticking with a burgandy, gold, and black with some variations on the tints. We have a few ideas we've been kicking around thats different and a little off the beaten path but will still be a Z1 when done. We had the chance to spend a whole day together working on his front end swap and BS about a lot of things. The airbrush work on his bike is no less than amazing so I'm confident he'll get mine the way I want. In talking, he's going to start offering up his services so if anyone is interested, I highly suggest you give him a shot! I'm confident you wont be disappointed.
Again, Thanks Man!

Les
