- December 28, 2013, 14:23:24 PMThanks so much from Everyone for your input. I've been quiet on this, not b/c I've been ignoring, but b/c I've been looking and thinking... so much that now I have a headache! 
Problem is, I don't think there was anything listed that I DIDN'T LIKE, some I like more, of course, and some I like less. There are a lot of good points to consider, and lots of ideas. It's a good thing I have a bit of time yet to make up my mind.
Feel free to keep the ideas coming! Nothing is set in stone until the paint gun is filled...

(even though I'd prefer to put WWW tires on...)

I always like the Indian Chief chrome fender moldings between two colors.
Second vote is like in the pic.

- December 27, 2013, 22:28:08 PMHere is a bold step. Choose a pinstripe. Very sharp with tan leather. I love the teal/turquoise/seafoam colors, but they are probably the most common retro base colors done. If I was repainting, I would step away from the common cliche paint jobs. Red/black, red/white, or black/white with the oval inset on the tank. It really isn't the colors as much as it is the oval painted on the sides of the tank. I prefer it to the oval inset on the tanks. I'm sure you will get exactly what you want.

- December 27, 2013, 21:40:07 PMI had a Chevy pickup years ago, exterior was burnt orange and cream, interior was tangerine orange and champagne velvet, diamond button tuft. Those colors looked good together. I am a fan of the oxblood and cream combo like Troll's bike too;You should go to a paint shop and ask to go through their paint chip books........then you'll be confused....

Well, I think I might do that.

- December 25, 2013, 21:01:04 PMI think I would be partial to orange and an off white used on some Honda Shadow 1100s but I like the one picture of the red & white Indian as well.

- December 24, 2013, 13:08:03 PMI've always been a fan of dark navy blue with chrome. For two tone, either a dark metallic silver with the blue would be nice and black pin striping to break up the two. Or reverse the dark silver and black to end up with a black and blue bike with a dark silver pinstripe. If you stick with two dark colors, it'll really make the chrome pop and the black seat/saddlebags with chrome studs will coordinate nicely.

- December 23, 2013, 20:53:31 PMThanks for the input so far. Keep em coming.... As a side benefit, we all get to look at some really sharp bikes!!! 
I see a lot of ideas I like, I guess that's been the trouble - narrowing it down - but keep the ideas flowing.
Quote from: Troll on December 23, 2013, 08:12:03 AMJust don't paint it like a checker taxicab...
I had considered perhaps a skull theme, but decided against it.
