Looks good, especially with your floor board and exhaust shield!

Have a closer look at the new charcoal frame in the top shot---------->>>>>
I think it doesn't contrast too badly with the gloss seat frame. I am currently considering taking the seat frame and having some steel sides and front welded on to enclose under the seat. I am also thinking that I may paint the seat frame, headlight mount bracket and fenders pearl white. What do you guys think?

I really like the look on those wheels, i might just do the same to mine but paint them the same yellow as the rest of the bike, the flat black frame looks nice with the front forks and the shinny seat frame matches the batt cover, about the off white, i don't know but if you like it go for it and post

I think you are on the right track with the all black and chrome. I just used the old "chrome in a can" to paint my radiator cover to look like the aftermarket round chrome one battlescooter sells. It only cost me under $3 dollars instead of $103. I also painted 3 stripes on my muffler cover. Where did you get the diamond tread cover? That's awesome. I was just considering painting my rims exactly like you did and the opposite on my wife's metropolitan. I like the boppers too, I have been wondering what they look like and how they handle. I think you should do a gloss black frame with chrome accent pieces and flat black plastics. Very stealthy. I also added "scuba netting" (black plastic mesh) with black zip ties under my seat. I wrapped it all the way around the seat, instead of leaving the back open like I've seen others do. It turned out awesome and only cost $12 dollars and some time. Next I'm adding dual chrome H2O bottle holders, leather bags, and KC light gaurds. That's not even including engine mods I want to do. Enjoy!

The boppers you'll definately a noticeable improvement in handling, fuel economy and top speed. They handle better because they are a rounder shape so they are more willing to flop over and lean around corners. Plus the slicker design means more rubber is touching the ground for better grip. They'll also give you better fuel economy and top speed cuz they roll better. With boppers and all my other mods (including taller gearing) I can get close to 200km (160miles) BEFORE the gas light comes on. I've been taking it slightly easy around town so I should hit 200km on this tank. Once I get Chanito's windscreen on there I should be hitting 200 no problem.
The paint job does look nice. I really think it would look cool on your scoot Chanito to match the yellow stripes and the rest of the yellow. I'd like to see a red scoot with red rims too but you'd want to get pretty close on matching the red. I like the idea of only painting the center. From the pics your masking job looks A+!
