Classy Colours

I touched on in another post about the nice Burgundy colour of the Bandit pic.

It got me thinking - the Bandits have come out available in a nice, elegant or relatively classy range of colours.

Black, Navy, Burgundy, Silver, Blue.

They haven't been spoiled too much by stickers and stripes (apart from the anniversary colours a few years back.)

What colours would people like to see on the Bandit?

I'd like to see a special edition version coming up with the 20th Anniversary of the release of the Bandit. Maybe have the traditional Suzuki Tricolour Blue scheme??

Any ideas??

How about a classy Suzuki yellow ?  These days they can do incredible paint jobs.  Triumph has a nice one out now. A kind of marble effect that is never the same on other bikes.

In all seriouslyness, I really think pearl white like the Mazda or Subaru ones with the decals in the orangey red like off the Katana. Because its " uncool " nowadays to have Suzuki written on the tank I think an orange stripe down the tank to match up with one on the DUCKtail would be cool. Or is that too Trumpy? I have been told I have no idea when it comes to things like this so I won't be offended with any comments. ( except Hammys ).

Ooooh  No.   I'm more of a "Cutlett Brown "  myself.

It's a no-brainer for me - I'd want a black and gold special - a bit like this 2004 GSXR but with more gold, eg gold levers, bar ends, chain, sprockets, etc - and a Yoshi carbon can as standard.

Are you still toying with the idea of gold wheels ?

Yes Hammy - just haven't gotten around to it yet.  Can't afford to have the wheels off with the big 3 day, 2 night ride next weekend with Jim Coleman, 2WA (for part of it) and the Far South Coast Riders.

Watch out !  Jim might have his new Givi tank bag operating. 

Nah, it's got no bolts!

They're in the post.  It's like that Royalty thing.  They can't travel on the same plane.

Jimmy you make my heart flutter, i love that mazda 6  pearl white colour. if i could justify it the GSX would be done

Yeah, its a beautiful colour Jim. Remember the Decals on the Kat that were not quite orange and not quite red. I think the two would be best mates.
