As fate would have it, I have 3 black motorcycles. A black GRiSO, 1200 Sport, and Convert. I want to paint at least one, and if I paint the Griso or 12S, it will likely be the stock red. I think the Griso would look great in a candy apple red too.
The Convert is the one I can't decide on, but leaning towards Irish Green. Interested to see others.
So as the title says, show your colors on these bikes (other than black lol)

I don't have either of those, but red is almost always the preferred option for an Italian bike

Greg Bender's green 'vert is a beauty IMO.

The obvious answer is buy another motorcycle in a color other than black. Saves all that sanding, priming and paint prep.
Use a budget of say 10 grand. If the wife asks tell her I said its was alright.

I like blue too. This was my Harley before it burnt up.

I wouldn’t touch the Griso or Sport. Vert is a blank canvas, and tins are easily removed. I love the DARK “Racer” green. My former Eldo had it, and I reupholstered the seat in tan. And your black cavernous bags would still work.
I had a corvette in the same color combo. Tan interior and top. Almost looks black till it’s in the sun.

I'll play.

Add some color. My final choice is orange.

Just picked this up a couple of weeks ago. It was black, much better now😊

Red, white or green for Italians, or combo. Kawasaki's should be green.
-
All my bikes are RED, even the green one.

Back before my Guzzi Days, I had a red white and blue collection. Still have the XS bikes, but FJR is long gone.

I love my Guzzi's but black is getting old. The red on those Breva 750's is what I was thinking about for the GRiSO.
I was also thinking about a ghost American flag on the Convert Saddlebags, with the unit
Logos from all my Army units along the bottom.
Would run chrome fenders and red tank (same as the classic V7 red) bags and side covers.
With white and blue pinstripes on the tank and covers and back to the bag lids.

Now that bike is a mic drop.

I see no love for the beautiful ice blue colour? It's also a factory colour for the convert, so no reason not to go this route! :thumb:

Anyone know the name or code of the green on Gregory Benders Convert ?

+1 for the ice blue. Paired with the flat black top section it looks good:

I fretted for months choosing a color for my G5 and ended up going with traditional black with white stripes.
