Oh boy it's gorgeous.

I'd leave it like that. Makes you stand out a bit. You still have a red ducati, but not the same as every other red ducati!

I like it Thumbs Up

Welcome to the forum. Nice bike, the 749s/999s are beginning to grow on me a little.

Paint the front wheel red and the rear yellow to match!

Maybe the wheels are more satin than gloss, but oh well, you get the idea

That looks fucking gorgeous, even more so than the multi coloured version.

Cheers,

Tobyr

Thanks for the comments Thumbs Up

Photoshop, it's quite a short process, but long winded to explain.

I'm a freelance graphic designer/illustrator currently looking to start my career (just doing some temp studio work for experience atm), so quite versed in most graphics programs (still learning mind).

Many thanks for the pleasant welcome.

The bike will have the front fairing sprayed yellow, and the wheels re-powdercoated in black as per Craig's picture.

There is also a new solo seat to go on such as these;

The moto gp seat unit will house the new led rear and indicator lamps behind a light gold mesh Very Happy
