    Like I said before, check-out the Mustang in Hunter Green with a Peanut Butter top. I'd recommend as Ras saod above, the original decal kit in gold. Green will look good on this bike with your seat with the right shade and accents.

      How 'bout this ?



      1980 XS1100G "Dolly G" Full Dresser (with a coat of many colors )
      1979 XS1100SF (stock-euro mods planned)
      1984 XV700L Virago (to be hot-modded)
      1983 XJ750MK Midnight Maxim (semi-restored DD)
      1977 XS650D ( patiently awaiting resto)

      Sometimes it takes a whole tank of gas before you can think straight.

          It is not that I do not like green at all. It is just that the green needs to be offset with something to make it pop. The green on BA's bike has that pop due to it's hue and the fact that the gold badges offset it.
          Personally I love the green and white of the European style racing cars, green with a white stripe. I just can not get my head around the fact of the deep green (in the photo's) with a tan colored seat. The seat seems so huge that it's color makes the selected color look just wrong to me.
          Everyone has their own likes and dislikes, I am just the wrong person to ask if you prefer this color combo. Each to his own though, and you do whatever makes you happy and I will never fuss.
          I will say that if I was trying to buy this bike from you that part of my bargaining would be that I would have to repaint it.
