RS custum paint scheme - please comment ! - j3gq_imp - 02-16-2021
I'd be very curious about your comments to this custom paint scheme, boring ... lovely .... etc ?
This is a 2017 RS, originally black, the former owner needed a change in colors (and a comfy seat).

Unique character.
The choice of colour enhances the contrast with the lovely blacked-out lump.

European looking...

I wouldn't choose white as a factory color when buying a bike (just my personal preference), but that scheme is very nice

I think that pearl white looks great but I would have went with a black clutch cover instead of silver and would.not have painted the forks between brace a triple tree. I do like the white headlight bucket though! Definitely would have done black represents also to keep the focus on the gorgeous white on the tins and tank

I think that's tastefully done, but I would have left the gold off the engine and chain guard. Just a splash of gold for the Honda wings, good on the lower forks and canister (what does that even do?)--that would have been enough for me.
And for those who like to check under their rear fender for grime, what better color than white to show that off? : )

Looks good to me. Yea I'm not keen on the gold bits but overall very pleasing

Bike looks great, no doubt about it, but some tank stripes or other accents would definitely give it more vibe and aggressive look...

My opinion is that it looks good in white but I would have been a bit more restrained with the paint brush. The tank and side panels in white with the rest left original would be my preferece.

That is exactly what I was thinking, although I don't mind the white fenders. But especially the gold is just too much. The CB1100 is a modest, classy and restrained motorbike, and the gold makes it just too flashy.
