Forest Green W/white stripes. They look tough.

Had a mulsiene blue 71 Z28. Mulsiene blue w/white stripes looks better!! Black stripes get lost in the blue! My opinion!!

Mines' called "sinister blue". It's a H-D color. Actually, it's a BMW color that Harley got from them. Really cool looking with white stripes. What happens to the color at night under lights is really awesome.

My 71 is painted 77 Corvette Blue (bright poly) with a metallic flake. It is a little lighter than Mulsaine so the black stripes might show up better.
A really good silver (like Mercedes silver) would go well with black stripes (my opinion)

Dave,

Here is a picture of my '72 before I started restoring it. It had the original Mulsane Blue paint (what was left of it) and also the black stripes. It's a bit rough, but it might give you an idea of how the colors go together.
