I once saw a steamer painted in desert khaki that a german gentleman was running at it looked awesome... :twisted:

Hey Stretch, could you make this into the definitive colour poll? I tried, but I exceeded the poll option limit.

The Caspian Blue on the Girlies blows me away, I love the way those bikes look painted up like that!

Unfortunately it's just not as fast as the Aluminum Silver ones, so that's why I had to buy my 05 in that color.......

BRG in Steamers.  Any other color just looks faked.

Lucifer Orange in Girlies.  If you must ride a chick, make sure she's an evil one.  Plus all the other colors look like Easter eggs to me. :P

Black in Roadies.  The Darth Peach.  That's all I've got to say about that.

you will notice that the only color that has been available every year since the beginning is BLACK
(diablo black and jet black are the same color BTW, 97's had a diablo black also )
BLACK is the Tiger flagship color , it's also the sexiest and fastest color

no black in 2005.  :wink:

I like black. You can't go wrong with the colour as its always current. My only gripe with black is that is looks great clean and terrible dirty  :lol:

My three favourite colours:

1. Lucifer Orange Girlies
2. BRG Girlies/Steamers
3. Kakhi Green Steamers

honourable mention:

Black is not listed as an "official" color for 2005 but I am pretty sure  I have seen a Black 2005 Tiger before , maybe not , who knows :?:

Triumph does some special colors on stuff every year . Ones that don't get mentioned in the brochures

In 2002 there were three colors of bonnevilles
Sky Blue w/ silver
Green w/silver
and Ugly brick red with silver
But look at the pic........ here is my 2002 Standard Bonneville in 'Cobalt Blue w / silver' from the factory
It was a limited run , something like 250 units and no mention of it in any of the brochures , it had something to do with the Queen' I think .........

Girlies - Black is the coolest.  Silver is the next best as it takes less maintenance.  The Caspian Blue is gorgeous but I think it looks out of place on the girl.  It's like Ugly Betty in a bikini..... :shock: Now Lucifer Orange makes sense on a Girly.

The steamer looks best in black and dessert khaki.

Now that you have my opinion this should put the question to rest.....
