DaSkoot is Basic Black

[DaSkip]

I'm thinking about getting the saddlebag lids repainted and a few other scuffs here and there touched up.

The painter that I will be using is a kick-ass pin striper as well. I'm thinking a little bit of color might be a nice addition.

Whatcha think?

Yes or No?

[unchained]

If it makes you happy, yes. :DD

orange and red

[stoney]

Ain't nuthin' sweeter than some old school pinstriping on yer scoot...... I say go for it!!

[huckinfog]

Some flames would be cool.

[Dippsy]

I miss that bike...

[stoney]

Here's a couple of shots of the striping on my old 61.......

Pinstripes are a great tradition, and can truly personalize your bike.

[noodles]

It think it will make your bike more personal...
>that's a good thing<
and don't listen to Dip-A-De-Do-Dave cause he did have upside down flames too~

[J.A.F.O.]

Is it required to have a "little black dress" when you own a basic black bike?

[Dippsy]

I didn't like those so much.....I even forgot about them till you reminded me

butt flames as they were known in these parts

Yep, pinstriping will make DaSkoot just a little more fine....

Been ponderin' the same thing for my motor.

I think I'm gonna go with the following color combo...

If done right, I think it'd look good, and be a little different to boot.

:DD

[DaSkip]

That's funny, Ken. I was thinking about a burnt orange and a creamy white. I like all of the suggestions so far.

Mike, thanks for the tip....http://www.texefx.com/

I'll give him a call.

Great minds, and all that stuff that goes along with it.....

:DD

[Hodawwg]

I like scratches on mine. Paint your house instead but not burnt orange.

[Crabby Appleton]

orange and red.....trust me on this...pastels are for girls

[OKC Fatboy]

I think it's a great idea, Skip! Go for it!

My sister once took a bike, a lipstick, and a nail polish to a painter.

Told him to match it.

Peaches and cream, she called it. It was a gorgeous girl bike.

Peaches, coral, potato, potahto.....

I dunno.

I don't think the 'peaches and cream' combo looks bad....

I want something subdued, not glaring.

Orange and red are too bright.

[griffin]

Skip, look at mike dusold's web site he's in lewisville Tx

[BluesFan]

orb, '

THAT ROCKS!

[HARLET]

Ghost any thing looks great don't have to be flames Ive seen a lot of different things in that type of thing done they were all great but flames are over rated

[Brstr1]

Old school flames can still look good!

[Infidel!]

That's what I'm talking about! Exactly that, except it's different

[griffin]

Ghost flames

[BigSwede]

When/if I repaint, I'll prob get some pinstriping done. With the black, I'll prob do some gray and white tones with a bit of blue or red to break it up.

Pat is a great guy

[orbit]

Followed up on a pinstriper referral I found on the H.A.M.B. (http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/)

Looked at samples of his work. Rode over to his shop yesterday and bounced some of what I want done offa him.

We had a nice chat.

Been scourin' the interwebs for more definitive themes. Got two or three good ones.

Now the planets and stuff gotta align......

:DD

I can paint pin stripes.

Or you could wait until Junction next year and it could be a collaborative effort.
