Thats not a reflector, its a hi-lite painted strip to match tins Looks good, looking forward to more pics that show the real color. Glad to hear painter followed through on his end.

Bike looks fantastic!!!
I liked the first color as well.
Personally, I would have given him another option perhaps, some graphics, or pinstripes, something to add a little more complexity to the over all appearance. Even the stock appearing striping in another custom color, perhaps. That is my .02...
I am just jealous, I have done everything to motor and suspension, only mechanical change left, is the front end needs cartridges, and to turn black while apart. So even thought it is running great, I am missing what U had/have, a beautiful paint job that is one off and worthy of the rest of the bike.
Again, congrats, it is a beauty!!

Pete

I like both paint jobs. I think you would have been happy with either. That the funny thing about candy and pearl paint jobs, they will change color in different light and at different Angles.

I would compare the final result to the color tag that he has in house. Try to make him see the issue without letting your emotions take over. I know it is a lot easier to say/type however it may just force him to do what is right. If it goes south then get the better business bureau and local news station involved

Love the look of the tank but contact with the inner thigh is not so comfortable. I'll get used to it.
