I saw this advertised at a UK dealer. Looks like a Triumph America design scheme and I like it a lot.

I guess it's just me? But that looks really boring. I suppose people can start flaming me about this, but I see quite a few "custom" paint jobs that just look boring to me. If I were going to spend the money to get a custom paint job, I'd damn sure do one that nobody would ever think might have been from the factory. Now, if it's a DIY job and you have limited artistic skills that's different. I'm just saying, there's absolutely no WOW factor for me with that paint job.

Nope, don't do nothing for me either.

 
I won't believe it until it has been officially denied.

Two of my favorite colours but a little to conservative for my liking.

It all depends on how you look at it. Not everyone wants something that looks custom. If you want to maintain a stock look, but don't like any of the stock color choices then something like this would be perfect.
