    What color should I PC my swinger?

    I'm having trouble choosing what color to get my swing arm powder coated, thinking the stock gold color or blue for my 86 R's swinger. Here's a pic of the back of the trike, what would you go with? BTW it has gold rims and has a red anodized billet brake stay.

    Yah I've been thinking the stock gold would look better too. I've already got the pro-link swinger decals with the gold background and blue letters, might as well use them right?

    Yeah...the decals are blue so that ties things together good.

    I would stick with gold. How about black or chrome?

    Looks like your doing the stock look to me, So do gold. I'd take off that Amsoil sticker if it was mine, Even though it is one of the best oils.... It just kind of throws the look off.

    I have always liked the look of a white swing arm. Gold would look good too. That R looks amazing.
