Burgundy...that's a nice wine color, it would combine nicely with the arriving Black Agostini muffler too!  Love to find the official paint code for that one! 

I'm intrigued by the idea of Green or tri-color (Italian flag), but I feel like those color combinations are more for a café style or racing bike (V11, Scura, Sport) than a Norge...just my own mental "association" of colors and models.

That's a very Happy Quota - I like that color combo on it!

I think the Norge is sporty enough to pull it off.

Yellow... but the correct yellow.. there are many shades and variations... Lamborghini yellow is what the Griso's were painted..

[kirkemon]

there is an official Guzzi burgundy type color

What is the color code?

What is flip flop paint?

That is the common reference to the paint that changes color depending on the angle you see it from. Popular in the aftermarket, it has also been an option on a few cars from the factory.

Would you believe that there are something like 15 shades of Lamborghini Giallo (Yellow)...lots to choose from!

Paul,  I hope you've located a good painter and a good budget.  I think your bike looked in good shape.  It takes a good respray to match factory quality and longevity. 

Good luck.

Thanks John...all very true and excellent points.  It's got a few small nicks but is still in great shape indeed.  I was going to use the painter recommended by Mike at MPH, still need to get a quote to see if it makes sense to do so and take a look at the quality of his work, however Mike's recommendation gives me a high level of comfort he does quality work.  Of course, if the cost is too high, I'll leave it.  Looking at taking off all the parts myself to save on labor charges for dismantling and assembly.

Other items first before I get to the paint:
1.  Install Agostini muffler on its way here from Italy
2.  Install Beetle map (I'm sure it will take me a bit to get all the GuzziDiag stuff mastered and properly loaded.
3.  Install new custom Cal-Sci on its way...slightly taller than the shorty, slightly shorter than the Medium.

Don't you love modifications...nev er ending!!  :)

This is the color that I plan to paint my wife's bike -


I was pushing her to go with a red from the new F150.

try looking here for some ideas - you can then give the painter the color code.
