Title: Help, please, Deciding...
Post by: spoonlamp on 27 February 2013, 12:39:56 pm
Could you lot give me a hand helping me decide on what colour double bubble I should get for my silver Fazer? My last Fazer was red and had a black one, so I'm tempted with black, but I'm also wondering if a clear one would look better with the silver? Also might be better for when I'm, er, hiding from the wind... Also have a slight leaning towards an iridium one but it might be too bling for me...
 
Thoughts please?!  Thanks!   :D

Tough one, my bikes silver also


+1 for black as generally speaking the theme is siver & black


But i would get the pro-bolt aluminium, silver screen bolts for a nice bit of contrast.

I had an iridium DB on my black and silver skunk, didn't look good. I always go for the "dark tint" which is almost black and legal.
Usually get Skidmarx, had them on all my bikes.  :)

I've got tinted black on my silver Fazer. Looks classy. Normal screen, not double bubble on mine.

Thanks, that helps - removed iridium from the pot, now between a dark black tint and maybe this amazon one which is a bit lighter;

Definately dark tint. Iridium stuff sucks and a light tint won't look as good as a dark tint on a silver bike IMO  ;)

Ditto for dark tint. Both my Black Bandit and Blue Fazer have both. Looks well with any color.

Im not a fan of how the double bubbles look but that one doesnt seem overly big.
