Lucinda the bike looks fantastic  ;)....Your right about the cream cor showing up as white because that's what I'm seeing.Love the paint scheme,however!Always was/am a fan of that baby blue.WWW'S will make your bike pop out like you wouldn't imagine.The bike will look totally different.IMOPthis is a must do on your list with this paint scheme.You'll be more then happy with the end results.

Thanks Drift! I can't wait to get the white wall tires. Love the way the drifters look with them on. IMO it gives them an even more "retro" look. and I LOVE it! Went to bike night last week and all of our friends have Harleys and and I can't even begin to tell you how many compliments I had on my bike sitting next to all the Harley's! ;D

Thank you again everyone for all your help.

;) sorry not a dog..a devil....ok got that ......

WWW's are a must on a 800 Drifter because they make it look that much cooler. Mr Clean Magic eraser to remove the blue once you get them but wait till after they are on the rims to clean them so the grease hand prints for the shop don't show up, and for daily cleaning it keeps the tires looking really good.

Rad cover ...chrome I'll bet....lol....

Well then WWW's it is! Can't wait to get the tires. Personally I think they add so much to the bike. I was a little bit upset with the blue paint when I got it. I wanted the Deep Turquoise Green that they made with the 1500 drifter. I didn't know at the time I could have gone to the site "colorite" and matched exactly what I wanted so I ended up with the lighter shade of blue.

Thanks everyone for the nice comments on my bike!  ;D

It's a "Biker Tazmanian Devil" with his leather jacket and sun glasses on! No laughing!  ;D

Now all I need are the white wall tires. My tires are still good so maybe next year. Just added a radiator cover and painted it blue to match the bike. The bike actually looks better in person. The colors are blue and cream but in ALL pictures the cream looks white.

You guys are awesome, so glad I found this forum!

.... THANK YOU all so much....... The pictures are awesome and they help out so much.

Just be careful there, asking for more pics from Ratman.   Some of them have been known to be a little hard to get out of your mind, once seen, even for an instant......  OWWW  that one with the snow angel still HURTS>......  :o
