I'm planning to completely restore a 1985 Honda 125m. I'm thinking I might like to change the color scheme on it. Anyone have any suggestions?

If you plan to restore it, you don't change the colors. Restore means original. You can do what ever colors that you would like, want pink then do pink.

My fault I should have been more clear. The current 84 125M I would like to restore, has been assembled from many parts machines. Some of the parts have been repainted in the past(Odd colors). I would like to change the color scheme from what it is currently to what its supposed to be. As I reread above it does sound like I wanted to color it something other than what the original was(Again, my fault). Anyone know what the original paint colors were and where I can find them?

Thanks guys!

There are many posts this site about paint options that are a very close match to the Honda red. From what I remember, the difficult part is finding a match for the grey/silver Honda used on the rims...Lots of variations - everything from too shiny of a silver to too dark of a grey.
