What color should I powder-coat the frame?

[lucky13]

Okay guys I think I have decided to paint my rocket Ford Platinum White (kind of has a pearl tint to it) with a dark blue stripe down the center. Question is, what color should I do the frame? Should I keep it the basic black? Or go white, silver, or the same blue as the stripe? What are your thoughts?

Silver with the same platinum tint as the white. IMO

I like the idea of the white but it will be a pain to keep clean... So maybe the blue.

The frame should match the blue stripes

Go with paint first and if you like it then down the road PC it. I PCed my frame and came out nice but once i did was a small pain to add things later . That and if you paint it and dont like it just strip it and pick diff color . Way harder if PCed !

I think the Blue would be sweet.
What color are the wheels?

The wheels are going to be powder coated white. The bike is a '79 Suzuki GS 550, so it has the cast "Star" wheels.

Whichever color makes it faster and handle better.

I was thinking white wheels would look great. Definately go blue frame.
