Raw frame, raw tank. Cuz if you don't like the tank you can easily repaint it.

I like the idea of yellow frame with the raw tank.

I take back my suggestion and I +1 on the raw tank and yellow frame. Would look sweet too if you put 1/4" black adhesive pinstriping on the tank before clear coating. Perhaps following the natural contours of the various shapes on the tank...

If your a perfectionist, I would really recommend powder coating the frame. While the raw look sounds appealing, I just don't think raw or painting would be an option. Remember any imperfection will show 100x on a raw frame. As far as colors go, well that's a subject you really should only ask yourself. This is your bike and you have to live with it. I would look at magazines with custom bikes, favorite colors, patriotic or colors that have personal meaning. I've always thought that a red white and blue bike is something I would want, but solid one color is also cool. You also have to think about the purchased items and how those colors would work. If what I type doesn't make sense, well that's because I'm getting tanked on lienenkugels "Big Eddy". If you like beer with big time body, give some a try.

Rusty looking-bacon colored frame with aged, acid stained brushed aluminum tank, fender and cowl. Like you salvaged an old frame and pieced the rest together from the junk yard. Nothing too flashy since its your bike and a magnet for shit to happen to it.  |

evil grin lvl 100 Of course it varies with dynos. I might pick up a midpipe for my bike. Im pretty sure the PCV will link up to the TBs on the S2R1000 so i can run 2 maps.

yea im not sure how comfortable i am with leaving the rust on the frame. rust breeds rust. and it wont be a good base for the clear coat.
it does look freaking badass though.
i was goign to scotch brite it before i clear it. i want the lightest sanding material i can get because i dont want marks on the frame.
