Is it the light or do you actually have 3 colors there?

Front fender - green
Tank - silver
Rear fender - black

Evening out/balancing the color pattern would help a lot. A seat cowl that matches the tank would be a plus too  [thumbsup]

nice, I agree with Monster Dave about the seat cowl. [thumbsup]

Grrrly

my guess is it's painted to look like brushed metal.  On my cleared steel tank, you can easily see the brass (brazed) welds around the tank clasp area in front, and I don't see that on the pic.

Yep, they use brass to fill in the holes after welding.
