Strange description what your view on black?

Discussion in 'Panigale' started by mill848, Nov 3, 2012.

  1. Advertised as a Carlos Checa test bike paint job? Most manufactures pre launch test matt black with a gaffer tape stripe and then sneak pics to the press. Describing this as the paint job seems a bit daft, I love black bikes and had a lovely 749<shiny black) a few years ago and it was a real head-turner, not so sure about this colour scheme, whats the general consensus?

    Cheers

  3. I like it a lot.
    Much better than block black.

    For some reason, I am finding the Pani in monobloc colours just not marvellous. This makes it look much more desirable.

  11. No matter how long I look at it, the frame is still leftovers from a red bike.......

    Just as well the panni doesn't have one!

  14. Small shapes and black do not go together. For those who love black color on other bikes maybe you havent seen a pani in the flesh. Tiny.. Mito 125-tiny

  15. Think that looks awful on the 848 too, especially with the red frame.

  16. Red frame and wheels, like collar and cuffs, looks better
