I'll gush... I agree about the classy classic black with white details. Semigloss even better. Those Rivs with can hang out with the classics.
There was a Rosco Bubbe that had something like a flat sage green that I liked a lot. The flat/matte finish is like the gray that comes to mind when you all say battleship gray. I'm thinking of a gray that is so matte that its perhaps inconsistent, almost sandy, like some parts are showing a coating of dried sea spray. I absolutely love the butterscotch color that went on some of the Clems. I stare at a small, older Mercedes in that color a few blocks away...and I'm not even a car guy! I saw a Bombadil in something like a copper. I think there's one in a Riv YouTube video. Lovely. But just last week I happened upon stonehog.com and found pics of Brian Hanson's Homer in something like "light new penny copper" and that might be my favorite paint of all time. https://www.flickr.com/photos/stonehog/46788241224/in/photostream/ -Matthew San Diego On Sunday, April 19, 2020 at 9:03:04 AM UTC-7, Jason Fuller wrote: > > Myself, I'd probably want to paint it after a classic bike I've been > inspired by (Riv or not) so the colour has context, rather than just one I > like the look of. > > But what about this vintage machinery green: > https://images.app.goo.gl/NP2K6S87MsJrpdpq6 > (Hope that works) > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
