Hi alucke,
I think color will never look bad at a bike as long as it won't be too much. My 2004 "Fury" has a silver rear swing (unfortunately broken) and a few stickers with red in it and looks more friendly therefore.
I've found your thread while searching for a new rear swing. But so far no success. Any idea, any dealer you know about where I could get one from for "such an old bike" ?
Thanks
Mysak
