Yes, my syntax is a bit ropey, innit!.
So, OK you're right, there are brown bikes but they're not very common these days are they? I'm trying to decide what colour to paint my CB900f. I'm thinking about a sort of Austin Allegro sh*t brown. Or perhaps Vauxhall Viva beige. Something that looks safe and comfortable, appealing to a man that shops in Greenwoods, what do you think?

why not a two tone kind of thing using both colours? look rather fetching me thinks.
Honda painted that rather forgetable CB500 twin they made in the late 70's I think it was in a rather naff metalic dark brown colour I seem to recal and compounded it by fitting it with a very nasty light brown colour seat. awful. I dont think they sold many.

All bikes should be black! with the possible exeption of italian sports bikes which should be red.
