I used the stock Ruby Red on my '03, and just had the ivory 2-toned on the bike.  My main goal was to go 2-tone, and I was thinking of a slightly different color, but my painter talked me into leaving the red alone to save some $$.  I liked how it turned out.

  Mr. westbullhead; I can vouch for this machine, I have had the honour of seeing it in real life and the colours are something really nice. One thing I have learned since owning my Drifter is when you see one up close and personal, you need to look very close to see the little things people have done to make the machine their own and what have they done that seems really small and yet is so cool.

Love it. I think those two look great together. The red on the rims next to the white walls help set everything off.Was that your idea? The second picture of the fender ,it looks like a darker red than in the first pic.

Yup, my bike is a two tone Chevy Cruise Red (metallic) with a pearl white (metallic). The red doesn't photograph quite the way it looks. The guy at the paint shop helped me pick out the red and pearl white, he said they went together because the pearl white has some red in it. Maybe find a good painter who paints bikes (or cars) and ask him for some samples and what colours go together. Unfortunately I do not have the paper work with the paint numbers, it's packed away somewhere.

Has anyone ever seen the ruby red metallic used in a two tone paint scheme? If so, what color was it paired with?
