I had a nice surprise this evening from my paint guy,  pictures of my next cafe fighter's body work.

Looking forward to seeing the whole bike. The Gulf Oil livery is some of the best.

I have always loved that color scheme and the historical part of it.  Starting to be a very common thing though and have seen this on undeserving vehicles unfortunately.

funny how you dont' even have to put the gulf logo on something with those two colors, if you have those two colors on something you automatically know they are "the gulf colors" for racing.

Yeah that color scheme works most of the times  [bow_down]
