Cool paint job!
And I also really like the design of those spotlights: very smooth! 8)
Where did you get them?

That is one sweet paint job!

With the tan seat, I'd be tempted to go with some tasteful gold pinstripes and not much else.  Let that pearl white dominate, because it looks so delicious!

WOW that is some different colour bike, and it is very nice. Really nice curb appeal.

thanks the pic doesn't do it justice as it has some nice color pearl in it

Thanks for all the responses guys. After getting the bike back I think I'm going to go with silver leaf and engine turn. Now I just need to figure out the design/ form.

  I did that with black around my fenders, gas tank, and it does come out looking really nice if you take your time and put it on right, I found a small rubber mallet to tap it nice and tight to the edge and it holds really well.

This is not gold but it works well for fender details.  http://www.autobarn.net/custom-chrome-trim-exterior-molding.html

Well, for a few extra bucks, wet sand the clear coat to get it ready for another coat, then do the gold leaf, then shoot a couple more coats of clear. then it's protected.... :)

Guys paint job is finally done on my 800 and yes I'll post pics as soon as I get everything back from paint. Question is... I need some help figuring out what I want to do in way of either pinstripe, design, etc for the fenders and gas tank.. I was thinking using the sticker that was on the front fender as a guide doing that in gold leaf and that's it... Most of you will say you should have done this before clear coating the paint but I'm here now and need suggestions. Nothing too complicated please but give me an idea. Thanks guys
