Pink n purple
Weird kinda red - ended up pink
Blue
Blue and something else
Red
Orange (well, and white and black!)
Green
Red

Was eventually going to make the Monster pink or purple, but the more I look at it and ride it and see other people's reactions to it, I've realised that it's a bit special, so it's gonna stay red :D :D
Life is for living. Buy the shoes. Eat the cake. Ride the bikes. Just, ride the bikes!! :bblonde:

My first powered two wheelier was a Honda Melody. It was what I lovingly call 'Cat Sick' yellow.

Had a white basket and top box. It was a lot like this one...

Never owned a original blue bike.
I rattle can sprayed my thrashed & crashed 250LC blue at one stage.
I had my used & much abused Z650 sprayed blue,that thing cost me more in oil than petrol to get home from Barcelona in 1990 :shock:
Never had a blue bike ( or a Kawasaki) since...
Those TRX850 Yamaha's looked pretty in blue.
I think Black is the main colour in my bike history.
Suzuki GT250 Ram Air
Suzuki X7 sprayed black
Yamaha XJ550
Yamaha 250LC
Street Triple 675R
When I bought the Triumph I was going to buy a white one as when reading reviews or watching YT reviews I always thought the white bike looked best,but when I went to the dealers,for me the black bike looked better.

Many were like most bikes multicoloured, so I’ve gone with the main colour of the tank for each bike.

Red DT175
Blue DT50
White NSR 125R
White FZR 600
White FZR 400RR
Black RD350LC YPVS N2
Black SV650
Black KTM 640 Supermoto
Silver Vertemai S501
Black CBR600RR
Red Monster SR2
Black KTM 625 SC Supermoto
Black Husquvarna Svartpilen 401
White Triumph Street Scrambler

So at 6 it looks like black is my favoured colour, maybe I’m a closet goth?

Be interesting when Couchy chimes in!
Had over 50 bikes, I would imagine red.or white would be the most significant colour, but I do have a penchant for yellow bikes!
