Re: Belly Pan
It looks great, but you know what's missing? Every other painted part has a red stripe of some sort...put one on each side of the cowl and you might like it better...just an idea!

Re: Belly Pan
I like it Grommit. It is different from the stock one. I like the scoopy front of it and I like how it cover the motor and the header more.
Personally I like all the both parts to be the same color, but as Marina said maybe a red stripe or some red color would help tie it all together? Looks great!

Re: Belly Pan
One more to jump on the bandwagon, a bit of red to give it some depth.

Re: Belly Pan
get the black one and send it to dream machine at Nottingham and have it colour matched to anything you like
I know my supplier gets them painted cost more but are paint matched and guaranteed to be the right colour even age fade the paint for older bikes  Looks the best one out there nicer profile than Pyramids belly pans wouldnt touch powerbronze with a barge pole as there flimsy and a rubbish fit so yep looks the dogs mate

Re: Belly Pan
I hate saying any negative, but you asked, so..
I love the flat black of the frame and engine. I have the black version as well and it's way faster than silver. (hmmm, that could be the new argument!) Anyway, back to the point. My eye is drawn to it immediately as it's glossy in a sea of flat. To me it looks out of place and "aftermarkety" I'd paint it flat black.
