What color would look best on the FJ-09?


Recommended Posts

If you had the option to paint your FJ any color what would it be? My bike is the matt gray and I really wanted a red one but I got a deal on this one I couldn't pass up. I sort of like the gray but what happens when it gets scratches in it? If you run a buffer over a matt finish it will shine up some. I've been painting cars for over 10 years so I'm thinking about spraying mine the yamaha blue. They do look good in silver too like the ones overseas. Maybe a glossy charcoal gray would look nice. I would only paint the colored parts like would come on the red ones not the entire bike. Thoughts?

Love the gold and black by the way. Here is a grey blue variant that looks good.

Maybe it's just me, but I think the best color is "dirty", because that means it's being ridden and not just left around for people to ogle.
 
The paint color underneath "dirty" hardly matters.

I want to ride mine so bad but it's been raining here all week. Thursday it's finally supposed to be clear. I'm picky if the bike gets dirty I wash it so it won't be that way for long
