Paint color
I have been deciding on a new color for my stock xs11 79E and I would like to do a dark forest green but having problems finding any examples for it. Does anyone have an image of a deep green colored xs they can share for reference?

I actually went on this hunt earlier this year. You're actually probably looking for a "Hunter Green", as some of the bikes pointed to were brighter in color
Here is a color I had in-mind: http://cdn.clicads.com/fotos/1965_hu...cd2f9c30ae.jpgLast edited by IanDMacDonald; 05-28-2014, 05:25 PM.1979 XS1100F

Trying to find a color close to the green on the Yamaha Bolt. The color doesn't seem to be an easy one to find on this bike.79F with two parts bikes (78E and a 79F). Ran it for the first season all the way through the summer. more work to do this Spring!Comment
