I'd say the Tan 10:1. The black will look like primer. Look at your SpudShop pic of your bike in tan against the Idaho hills. Is that perfect or what?

Listen to the Force, Young Spud. Don't cave to the majority. We Inland Northwesterners have to stick together.

I'm still waiting for Weldangrind, AZ200cc, Cal25, DesertRider, et cetera, to comment on the Desert Tan; all those gentlemen have a very good eye for esthetic detail. Spud

I have no esthetic ability. I voted orange Spud, but I think tan would be nice too. Black is too overdone.

OK, dug up a photo of the Vento Mountrack in camo which was a rebadged Zongshen Sierra back in '06--the same time abouts that Qlink had their X-Ranger 200 which was also a rebadged Zong Sierra!

Hey Spud,
I didn't realize you were awaiting further input; too bad that Desert Tan wasn't available when I voted. It's certainly my favourite. I also agree that it would set your bike apart. My only recommendation is that you stick with the Ultra Flat or it will just look beige, like a K-car. One good thing about painting plastic is that you can always change it if you don't like it. :wink:

It was warm this past weekend so I did it outside at around 10 deg C. The paint adhered extremely well. I tried chipping some off with a fingernal but no dice. It could have been me, or the complex radii, or maybe the temp, but it did seem quite thin compared to a can of auto paint for example. Had a couple of runs and I was sure I stayed at least a foot away, but like I said, was probably just me. I put 2 finishing coats of black on the underside and by the weight of the can, probably could do one more easily. Oh, I'm the clown that voted red, but I've always liked red and black Pete
