New blue V85tt
Amstaff:
Amazing how a color can affect mood almost like a taste or a smell. I like the flush clear coated big eagle decals like on the V11.
Was almost thinking bright white paint. I recently bought my first white suv, after six years of Billet Steel Metallic, and now my my V85 is a matte version of that color.
The alternative is Toyota’s Blue Flame paint. Wondering how much the set of unpainted plastic is if available…..
Trialsman:
I wanted to show how the gloss worked out. I also added some green. (and I have the paint code for the Centenario Green!)

Much happier with the gloss.

I am just curious if any of you v85 guys have considered paint matching the case guard as well, I think that blue would look great on the bottom too!

Nicely done! DIY or professional? Would love to see a picture of the whole bike outdoors w/o the garage distractions.
Trialsman:
I did the design and prep work, but had a friend spray the paint for me since he had an oven to bake the parts to cure. I cross posted some other pictures under the "Gloss or Matte Finish" thread. On my first Ronald V85 I did powder coat the lower pipe guards satin black and I liked it better than the silver. I will try to dig up a picture. I haven't decided if I might end up doing it to my Centenario also.
