    Actually that would probably look ok. Especially if you put a sticker or two on the swingarm.

    Ya maybe a couple of chrome looking streetfighter stickers
    to bring out the look of the frame.
    could work.

    Although the black swingarm would look fine i would still paint the rest of the frame black too. I pondered(for 2 fekkin weeks) over the same dilemma just before Christmas; then i just done the whole lot black and glad i did
    take a pic of bike and alter the frame colour with paint or another photo image thingy, it will help you visulise the bike with either all black or part black

    I was thinking of painting the frame but i don't have the space
    to strip the bike at the moment cos i'm moving house.
    i might just fit the arm and see what it looks like and
    if it don't look good i'll see if i can get the powder
    coat removed.
