Anyone planning on painting your 1100?

I am partial to #5, reminds me of the GB500 of which I am also quite fond of.

Gawd no.
Some of those are kind of cool, but the ruby red on my '13 is one of the most beautiful paint jobs I've ever seen on a motorcycle.
I always look forward to seeing what others do to their bikes, though - please let us know what you decide to go with!

Excuse me Papa, but that's Candy Glory Red. I just like saying Candy Glory Red

When I first short-listed a second-hand, black CB1100 as a potential replacement for my old Ninja 250R the plan was always to have the tank painted a mother-of-peal white with metallic flakes and racing stripe/s (possibly similar to Arkaos) with 60's style psychedelic patterns within the stripe/s. The day I purchased it I spent nearly the whole day riding, while I was filling up after dark I noticed how the flakes in the factory black paint-job popped underneath the fluorescent lights. I haven't been able to bring myself to destroy such a beautiful factory job, even though polishing out those cobweb scratches does my head in!
If the tank is ever scratched or dented then I'll definitely repair/replace it with my original white/psychedelic theme.

I have a little ding in my tank. I'm pretty sure I'm going to have that fixed, the emblems pulled and filled and paint eggshell black to match other components.

I would like my CB to be white some day. Plain white is fine, but if I did any kind of graphics it would be White, Red, Blue. I remember a picture that is somewhere on here that had a solid color tank with JP characters. Maybe for Yoshimura ? Pretty cool in any case.
