My Itallia is green. Obviously. Olive green. My Jacket is reddish pink and helmet matches it well. I know some folks color coordinate their gear to their bikes or at least make sure nothing clashes. I am usually VERY color coordinated but in terms of visibility I doubt anyone will fail to notice something that is that gaudy. Red or orange trunk could add to the general tropical "parrot" scheme I have going :lol:

Yup I currently have a green and black Little Italia. That green is olive though. The bright green with the red jacket would just be too much for me. I'd buy another jacket but the one I have is a motoport touring jacket and those suckers are seriously expensive, and seriously protective. I'd rather buy a new scooter that matched the jacket then buy another jacket. As it stands I'm pretty happy though! :D

Scooter trash those are awesome!! much better than mine :)

On my screen the one I made in the first post is definitely a light green-- hahaha the one everyone is calling yellow--- hmmm I wonder how differently I'm seeing everything now. This text i'm writing is red, right? just kidding.

Here's Yellow -- which I actually would LOVE now that I'm looking at it. As long as it has the tan seat.

I thought about painting my Buddy like Prince's motorcycle from the movie Purple Rain, then I decided against it :lol:

I'll make a couple fluorescent colored buddy pictures but I can't now cuz I'm at work.

Scooter Trash --- did you do those pictures in order to decide what you wanted to paint your scoot? If so, what did you end up deciding on? Or were you just doing it for fun? I looovve that intense blue

Wow! that is one bright scooter :lol: Kinda reminds me of one of my cycling jerseys, at least you'd be visible at intersections.
