Thanks. I decided to use a dark pearl Honda red as it will be a great contrast to the main colour that is yet to be applied.

Should stand out

Seems a shame to risk damaging it

For show Gilly?...................... I DON'T THINK SO
Shelly not yet, the lids were only started on Tuesday & was stripping & masking.
Bod, not sure yet. The prep, prime & white base coat was done for me at RAF Wittering by the Serco crew. The lining & masking for the flag was approx. 3 hours. All the ripped effect masking film was cut by hand.

Ripped the flag & get it ready for masking.

well you wanted comments good or bad.......................now take offence if you want but it looks like it would stand out on a novice club bike, the finish might look good but think painter needs to go back to design studio.....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i'll wait for a load of abuse but hey ........do i look bothered....

Now constructive Stu? Too complicated, too hard to repair (it
is Si ) were my first thoughts.
It would look great in a bike show but on TV maybe a bit mishy?
Or the lines not flowing?
Or is it because it's not Blue and White

Come on Stu, I know you can finish what you were thinking
