The pink badges have GOT to go!
They say "Eleven Special" in a little TOO sweet of a voice.

Actually, the paint lines are great.I might use that format on one of mine.
But the pink definitely has to go.

I DO like the style of the paintwork... just not the color... although the black is VERY cool...

Ray, thanks again for posting the pictures!
the pink tassles and the hello kitty comments made me laugh out loud in my car. yeah, brave and willing to take a joke are pretty much a necessity in my life since i bought the bike! so skulls huh? what about keeping the theme and putting pink skulls on the side covers? maybe a little ghost skull on top of the tank? i mean i could go hard core on this thing!!!1980 XS 1100 Special (working to be my daily ride)Comment

Well finally,
The tension was killing me. Actually it doesn't look all that bad, but I admit it would take BIG BRASS BALLS to ride that thing to a Biker Bar!!! But then with the obamacare insurance, your hospital bills would be taken care of. And, as for ammo, could we load some tracers that look pink instead of red??

About 5 years ago I traded for an XS11 Special that was painted yellow with purple flames= it was nasty! But it only took about 10 minutes with some of this: http://www.krylon.com/products/camou...on_technology/
and then it was ridable again...

the pink tracers are a great idea!! i think i might get some pink bottle rockets and use that rocket launcher thing from the other post....and i did actually buy some of that spray paint. i am going to start with the side covers and see how they look when i am done, and kinda go from there. a buddy of mine has a paint gun, but that seems like a lot of work, but i do want something i can be happy with. any ideas as how i can keep just a little of the pink to remind me?1980 XS 1100 Special (working to be my daily ride)Comment

Hi 1st,Originally posted by 1st bike View Post
keep it all. Get custom-made black leathercloth zip-on covers made for the tank and sidecovers. Zip 'em on to get that Vincent styling, zip 'em off to flaunt your inner pinkness.
Um, that last bit reads a bit naughty. "Zip 'em off to flaunt the bike's inner pinkness." is what I meant. Honest.Fred Hill, S'toon

1st bike,
I just went out and looked at my SG and tried to find something that could be pink and not too obvious.
Well...............no luck there.
How about a name with pink in it like "The Pink Panther" or "In The Pink"?
Maybe something like that in scroll on the sidecovers, in pink of course, or somewhere quietly on the frame.
Maybe a naming contest of some kind here in the members lounge?
Waddiya think?Comment
