Looking for paint suggestions

[old gold]

It's time to paint the bike. My 85 Interstate was originally metallic blue; an unknown PO painted it purple and I'm ready to have a shop make it look right.

The 85 GL1200 came in 6 different colors: Metallic Silver, Metallic Blue, Metallic Gold, Metallic Beige, Vintage Red, and Wineberry Red. I think the Wineberry looks best, but wanted to get some other thoughts. Yes, that's asking for your opinions; just support them with a picture , please.

Thanks

ColorRite sells the 3 step paint used by honda (base coat ,color coat,clear coat) mine is about to go ivory 86 sei color . I painted one hunter green last fall for a friend in the can didnt think much of the color tryed to talk him into changing. with the paint on and chrome cleaned it looked very good wineberry is a very good color that is what mine is now the wings are great bikes and look good in a lot of colors make the bike yours and pick the color you think it should be and it will look great

If vote for the Wineberry. I've had the tan @ the black , but like the Wineberry best. Of course that's just my opinion

I agree with fatwing

My 85 is Wineberry red, so I guess I am partial to that color.

Seams like every second Gold-Wing is wine-berry - paint it any different colour so you can find it in a parking lot.
If I paint my bike I might consider a deep ivory but then I have to admit Black Gold-Wings are pretty Sharp ....!!
I don't mind the grey but I have way TOO MUCH GREY already..!!

Black would actually be my first choice.Black with everything else blacked out as well.As little chrome as possible.Just like the F6B.

My main bike is 85 Ltd was gold with root beer inserts. Never realy like the color new paint is black with green and gold tipped flame running through the lower body panels. I love the new effect and with the chrome looks sharpe.
