I actually really like that. If you have the black spree with the purple decals, this color, imo, would set it off perfectly. It'll give it that 80's glam look to it! Good choice/find on color.

That color looks sick! Great Choice!

yeah i think it would look really sweet against the little bit of grey that is on the bike like the rack the break calipers the handlebar switches and the forks.. i painted the exaust i had sand blasted with high temp flat black it looks yeally good .. the seat has the purple trim and there are the purple stickers on it .. im thinking on pealing them off and putting a seat with the black trim on it to make it all black . im also thinking on buying this paint that goes on the turn signall lenses and the break and head light that turns it black, un till you turn the light on is when you see the color i was gona get a blue head light ,bright led signal bulbs and changing the gauges to blue and buying under glow that is blue also blue led valve caps that light up when its dark.. what do you guys think .. ill try and put up a pic of what my spree looks like now

this is what my spree looks like now

here is what my exaust looks like ..(sory for the poor quality picture)

what color do you guys think i should put for the under glow and the led valve caps

Do purple dude.
You gotta try and tie in your stickers and seat trim.
The easy thing to do when painting is choose main color and then an accent color and stick with those two throughout. It's simple and turns out sharp

purple rims or purple lights???????.. and i was thinking about taking the stickers off and putting an all black seat on it . then it would be black on black on black with what ever color under glow i chose

What the * does this have to do with performance tech. This belongs in general discussing. Pretty is not performance.

ohh i didnt even relise what catogory i put it under. my friend set it up to type and i didnt know he put it under perfornance.. sory .. well any way bear what do you think about it all any sugjestions on what to do to make it look good

I'm a fan of powder coating, but color scheme is a personal thing and each owner needs to decide what they want on their scooter.

are you familar with it??? will it fade over time or will it stay shinny


everyone else . what do you guys think

my vote is to leave the decals and seat alone. black rims would look sic. purple underglo would set the whole bike off.!

Powder coatng resists fading better than any other coloring system. But even it can fade if left out in the sun all the time. I had several parts on my race boat powder coated and in 10 years I had no fade, but then it was garaged of covered when not towing or at a race.
