Dan are you sure you want to go with a modern scheme with this bike...its just IMHO new schemes on older bikes look a bit disjointed and dont seem to work very well...
Why dont you consider going for something from around that era, I know they never raced the blade but and of the RC45/30 schemes would suit the lines of the bike better, or for the ultimate one of these original F3 schemes.

I must admit, i have spent many hours trawling through google, on here etc trying to get inspirtation.
Thanks for the links there.....my only fear is that none of the colours that was raced in the RC days would suit the NC29
Like i said about the Tyga bodywork, although i love it, i dont think it works with the NC29 aswell as the NC30...i think the lines of the frame dont lend itself well to it
Also, i do actually really like the shape of the NC29....and would like to keep it looking like one.
I have these saved for inspiration...

Will do.....not sure what colour to do the wheels, im not actually that keen on the light blue.....i'm thinking of staying black, or maybe a goldy/bronze like the colour of the stripe on the fairing.

I thinks its the wheel being light blue that really sets that bike off...
thats the best bet...deffo go for the light blue...be different anyway
