Ya know never really thought about the heat I don't have air either :lol: I was talking with my brother last night and he suggested to just go with Red and White throughout the interior. White dash, doors (except panels red) and a red seat with black carpet. What do you guys think about that idea?

Sounds good to me. As for the white getting dirty... unless it is flat paint, you can wipe it right off, just like you wash the outside.

I am planning on doing a nice high gloss white so I don't see a problem in cleaning it. It's mostly just going to be a weekend type driving when I am not riding the harley

Yeah, didn't see any good interior shots, although the exterior art is useable. Thought I might could Photoshop an interior color change. Worked about 2 hrs. on a color pic trying to change it but didn't like it so I gave up. Too many shades of the same color to swap. Thanks, though.

I will post some pictures latter, but here are my thoughts.

Dark Colors = HOT in sun.
Light Colors = No as hot in the sun :D
