Tecate frame color input

[SteveCZ28]

i finally tracked down a frame for my tecate that has paper work with it, so i can finally ride this thing on public land here in iowa. im going to get the new frame sand blasted and re powdercoated. not sure what color i want to go with yet.

i seen another build on here, a guy was running a white frame, which i liked. but i dont know.

or do i keep it all black like in my current frame.

something else i was wanting to do would be the kawasaki green on the frame, which would accent the color scheme i am running currently.

or if you guys have any suggestions, im open to those as well

I am about to powder coat my 1st gen Tecate frame also. I was wondering what I should do but I have decided on Kawi green.

I did another guys in white and it did look nice.

I'm not a Tecate guy but if you found a red tank and stayed with white plastics with a red frame and light guard would look good. That's just my opinion. In the end its up to you.

i have a good red tank, and red rad guard....but honestly i think it looks like ass that way. i like the white/green combination. i found a nice candy green that would look pretty sweet also

I'm in the middle of a build now. I thought about painting the frame green but I wanted to use 2-part paint on the frame, not rattle can.

Since I had some black epoxy on the shelf, the frame is black. That's how I roll...

[SteveCZ28]

obviously my frame is black currently. and ive seen pics of white frames. but havent seen pics of green frames. so i dont know if i want to do that. dont wanna blast and powder my frame numerous times...

I think white with green plastics would be nice.

When I painted my first Toyota I was using white so we did my friends CR125 in white also with red plastics; Came out very nice!

Hello


I might do Kawi medium blue with the orig tank decals that have blue, possibly blue vinyl tape stripes on front and rear fenders and put seat back to kawi blue.

I'm not doing a complete bike make over here. Just wanting to change frame color.

[SteveCZ28]

its a toos up between kawasaki green, or candy green

[barnett468]

I'd paint the frame blue.

[barnett468]

I would paint it Kawi green.

[SteveCZ28]

blue is completely and definitely out of the question....like i said, im not rebuilding and changing all the colors of the bike here
