Someone had to vote 'blue'. Seriously, it would be a tough decision for me. Not silver, I think. It's OK, but bland for a motorcycle. Blue, red, gold would all be fine with me.

One year, there was a stunning grey tank released in Japan and Asia, but I can't rustle up a picture just yet.

spartanheed, have a look at this post, http://cb1100forum.com/forum/showthread....pid189924.

I'd have sworn there was another picture of it as I thought the CB1100 may have been sent to Europe in that grey, but I can't find it.

Edit, I must have been thinking about the 2018 RS sent to Europe.

The colour is called 'Digit Silver Metallic'.

The red with gold stripe does it for me.

Cool In a picture you probably would not see all the different colors because of all the glitter in the paint.....

If there is a $100,- difference between red and gold you will be happy to have spent more on your favorite colour, i always wanted gold but just not available, you only live once, have a treat and i agree on your sentiment for the silver/black combo.

The CB750 colors are fun, but I think the Iris Purple from the 73 CB350 would be a stunner. I plan on getting my CB450 painted in the Iris Purple with the gold tank stripe.
