It's OK but I'm not wild about the shade of orange, it's kind of wussy.

I used to have a Ducati Mark III I painted bright orange epoxy. Set against the chrome frame (a PO paid for that) it looked wild.

Rickman made orange bikes too that looked good. (If anyone here knows who Rickman was...)

That's too bad.... I actually liked the orange better.

Sorry, I didn't mean to ruin the legend...

BTW, this car is for sale at the moment (without the yellow/orange Mg rims).

here's my thread contribution





The car is now rolling on "signal green" Cup 1 wheels, much more fitting for the 951 than the phones.

So if I were to clown shoe my new wheels, how badly would I get flamed?
