Need Ideas : Paint Colours for Motorbike ?

Having wrecked my Suzuki GSXR 750, I have just bought some plastic bits, a wheel, Frame bits, etc, etc. to get her on the road.

Anyway, all these bits need to be painted, and the cost to respray the bits the same colour as what the bike was originally, is not much less than to respray the bike totally.
(The Bike was already sprayed in a custom colour previously, a colour very similar to the Pursuite Ute Blue).

Here is a pic of the bike

The colour that I am thinking of at the moment is a Chameleon Blue/Purple/Green, with White Rims.

I am also open to Race replica designs, etc.
Because the respray isnt going to be cheap, I am looking for some idea's before diving in and spending the dosh !

Any one have a favourite colour, or paintjob on a car or bike that I should consider ?

Cheers
Matti

Maybe in Supersport Corona 750 colours or James Whithams GSXR-750 scheme looks mad. With all the decals and that....

I've resprayed my car in a Chameleon Blue/Purple/Green colour.
you can buy it in 1 litre tins for a bit over $400 but it has to have a black base under it. The brand of the paint is standox exclusive line, here's a pic of it although its not a very good one
