White bikes are awesome

Wish mine was looking as good as it did when it was just finished.
That does look good.

Man you have done a magnificent job restoring that bike !
My opinion. It needs some graphics to accentuate the lines. Think along the lines of the factory style graphics and be creative with colours. You have a nice canvass to work with.

I think you missed the whole point of painting it white.
The factory graphics didn't even accentuate the lines, it was just a flat pattern laid over the side of the bike. As for the paintwork I bought it with ...

You mean that you don't like this ?
I recall the B3 models looked average. And yes the paint job you bought it with was horrid.
