I've always thought BMW are good at picking very boring colours for their bikes....
So if you could paint yours, what colour would it be?

I'm kind of tempted by matching it to my BMW car - and painting it Valencia Orange.
Motorsport (Estoril) blue is also really nice.

I'd like to paint my 1200S in the later boxercup scheme or the HP2 sport paint job.
Only down side it would be if I did'nt throw all that money at it i'd be a bit closer to buying an HP2.
Or a variation on the old Honda paint scheme from the CB1100RD
I have now failed to put a picture of one here (using a Mac)

I always wanted an R12S in Colgate colours ,but when Humbug came up, I was even more pleased as it suits the bike and is unique.

Nice British Racing Green with some red, like old Jaguar race cars maybe, and a nice matt black engine

see you've started me again now
If I had a 12S I'd really want it like this
or as Eyore said I too like the Colgate scheme
I actually like the colour schemes of all of my bikes to be honest

I'm going to stick with black until they invent something darker!

Steve - that's the colour - that's Valencia.
Awesome colour when the sun hits it just right.

I think they've renamed it on the K1300S, I'm sure it's called Lava Orange on the bikes, suppose it sounds more dynamic or something
