Paint the rest silver.
Looks good Herb.

In spite of the cost of living, it's still popular.

Not just MV who have done red/silver ....
Might be worth considering the fairing sidepanels in silver

Looking good buddy. Quite like that.. Side panels silver would enhance the look that little bit more.

Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut that connects the handle bars to the saddle.

Can't have too much silver

Nice idea. but it needs more silver to work. I'd go with red upper fairing and tank and the rest in silver.

Short term and if funds are tight I'd paint it black, easy to do and quick
