My NTV650 has to be one of the worst colours in existence.
Motorcycle colour schemes, best and worst.

Re: Motorcycle colour schemes, best and worst.
The colour scheme that did it for me...
There are a few more out there but this was the iconic 'big modern Kwak' family look that appealed tp me as a teen.

Those CB400/fours of the 1970's looked quite nice in Parakeet yellow.Zookman wrote:Never owned a yellow or a green bike.... and I never will.
I would give brown a wide berth as well.

I've got a ZZR600 in pieces in this colour scheme
It's terrible but at the same time I love it!

Re: Motorcycle colour schemes, best and worst.
Faves - F650 GS Dakar - the one with the red & blue checker board pattern.
KTM 950 Adv - 04, 05 - all gloss black, with the KTM logo picked out in orange pinstripe - simple, classy.
Africa Twin in Red, White & Blue - lovely.
Any Yamaha in Yellow with black speedblock.
Classic red & silver MV.
My wife's fave - Triumph nuclear red (pink!), Suzuki kettle in purple,
BM K1 in postbox red - yuk.

KTM 1290 Super Adventure T - Power!
KTM 690 Enduro R - lighter to pick up
Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 - Fun.
Even our dogs are orange.

Re: Motorcycle colour schemes, best and worst.
The best and worst colour schemes could be the same scheme but on different bikes.
Honda red/white/blue looks great on Africas but on a Deauville or Wing!! similarly the candy red on Pans & Wings? would not suit the Africa.
