Paint or not?
« on: May 09, 2011, 10:43:43 PM »
Since I did my transformation from a SERG to a SESG I always thought there was one thing missing. I noticed that all SESG have there outer fairing skirt and fork slider covers painted. The inner fairing is painted silver but the outer fairing at the bottom is bronze. If I paint them which color should go with?

Chrome is better than paint, unless you have a blacked out bike.
