recommendations of paint please

whats up guys, my bike is just about ready for paint, finally! i had the frame powder coated red a few years back which im now being to regret. its super clean so i will be keeping it for now. i was just wondering if any of you guys have a red frame and if so/or not, what colors schemes you have seen that look good on red. i talked to my paint guy and we were thinking maybe an off white with gold pin striping. whats your opinion? photo references welcome!

Red frame ,White body work. Looks ok.
Do you know anyone whos handy with photoshop?

i like the red frame. Most don't on here. I use a website for color combos.

I use it for art stuff in my free time.

nice guys! thsnks. keep em comming. it looks like red and white is the winner so far

Agreed, with the red frame being so strong I think white, but with some contrasting graphics or coachlines.

I'm seriously thinking of doing white on my 82 GPz750R1, but either pearl or metallic white to make it pop a bit.

The red frame reminds me of Ducati. They use red, white, black and silver as the scheme. Very race inspired.
If you paint the tank red make sure it's the same shade as the frame otherwise it looks off. There is no hiding or blending in a red frame, so you'll just have to go with it.

Also, the moto guzzi v7 racer has a red frame with black trim and a raw steel clear coated tank. I've seen one in person and it's quite striking.
