I think they all have wayyy to much Yellow add a little more blue in but i think option 1 is the best overall.

i think the thing i dislike most is the yellow and black seat. what about a blue seat? I think a blue frame and subframe would look pretty cool. Post a picture of what it originally looked like I wanna mess with it on photoshop to see wat i can come up with

Here's the blue frame. Keep in mind the blue I plan to do any painting on is gonna be Blue Metalic same as on the arms and swinger.

I like the 4th option. Thought it would be too much blue..but it works.
You might want to put some tires on that thing. Unless its just a garage queen.

I vote for all one color.
The frame, sub, and hubs.

I like the blue in this one rare case.


Also to, don't put black in the seat cover.
A blue top would be nice with the blue tank cover.



What are you using to edit the coloring that way?

i like the option 1 but with the way the shocks are painted on the option 3 so it adds a little yellow up front but not to much good luck with it though i think which ever you choose it will look nice

Gotta covered with that, i'm very tight with money right now but after I get a few things done i'll be buying new ones.

After looking at them altogether I do like 1 the best and you guys are right about all the yellow way to bright and to much.

See the problem is with getting a yellow/blue seat is the blue aint gonna look like the same blue on my frame and elsewhere so I feel it wont work, reason why I went with a yellow/black seat.

I think the 4th option is way to much blue thats why I didnt post it with the others but feel free to play around with it.


What are you using to edit the coloring that way?

I use Corel Paintshop Pro 11

I say just get the fram pcd blue along with numberous other parts and run it without graphics.

Here's the new opt 1 but with a few added things from 3, I changed the seat cover but it still does'nt look the best.

I already bought the graphics, and my arms are chrome plating so no PC there, lowers were bad so I blasted them and painted them blue.

Go with the all blue look - frame, sub, and hubs. You can also do the a-arms to match if you want but I would not do the swingarm too ... eventually you get too much of one color going on.

I think I may end up going with the last pic that I posted up unless if Foxhondarider has something up his sleeve that I happen to like.

Oh and here is the seat that I thought might work, its the fourth one down on the left.

Thats alittle too blue for me DMC but it does look good.

Ok I put the graphics and it doesnt look that bad really I kinda like it but the front springs should be yellow I think then I think that hits the spot.

Here's the pic

10-27-2008, 03:53 PM
I like that!

Give me a couple minutes to do some other things and ill make the shock springs yellow.

Some yellow powermadd's would compliment your quad pretty nice too:cool:

10-27-2008, 03:55 PM
Oh, and honda #4, not to bother you, but do you think you can photoshop the red version of those graphics on this pic?

blue frame, blue sub, new rear shock, beadlocks, 18" rears and take all the stickers off the fenders.

10-27-2008, 05:57 PM

I like this one the best, but for some reason I feel there is color missing somewhere. just throwing this out there, trying making the rims black with this opt.

Thats perfect DMC good job!, sense the graphics are custom I cant get the 400 red version, the graphics come in a proof before they make them thats how I got the pic of the ones I wanted. I'll look but i dont think I can find a red version like that on there site.

Ok here's my graphics offically on, I think they turned out great for a first timer. I could'nt believe how golden my plastics use to be I was shocked, if I had bought these graphics with brand new plastics it definently woulda look like poo.

New graphics are great but, those stock rear tires wore out.

i would buy a rear shock and wheels and tires before anything IMO

I'll be getting tires and rims soon, I havent came across any deals on a rear axis shock yet but that can wait.
