Well I am going to start back up the project 200x but I am not quite sure what color scheme to go with, and the primer gray that it is now just won't cut it. I was originally thinking of a white frame/swinger/tank/super scoops with light blue 250R fenders, and black engine/seat. I am not sure if I am going with a headlight of number plate yet. I have the fenders already so I would like to use them but if some other idea sounds better I can get a different set. Also this trike will be ridden so I would want to stay away from painting the fenders since they will end up chipping. The last thing I want is for it to look stock. Any thoughts? Photoshop’s are welcome too! I have attached a Photoshop of what I was thinking but I don't know if that is what I am going to do. Oh, the trike below is not mine and if it is yours please let me know (it is sweet!).

no just an idea, of cousre I think if you gave me any color it would end up like that. Figured black and white might be something different

Since you already have the blue plastic, just keep it simple. Paint the tank to match and add some black scoops and Black Honda wings.

Paint the frame and swinger a nice silver.

I said that if I ever got another 1985 200X,I would give it the stealth look.

That sounds good; maybe paint the frame, swinger, lower fork tubes, pegs, and motor mounts silver. Then if I don't like it blue I can always change out the plastic and tank for other color choices without much of a problem.
