    I wouldn't trade up over paint alone

    I would trade up for ABS and/or cruise control.

    Somebody up thread mentioned a 6th gear for fuel economy. Does anybody have a guesstimate on how much improvement you could reasonably expect? I'm thinking a similar ratio differential to that between 4th and 5th.

    I would add stuff, but not trade up. I have too many upgrades on this bike now to be bothered with doing it again. If I want another color, I'll just have it painted.
    Please don't spook the road-sheep.

    Nope

    Won't trade it in, this is enough bike for me. Anyway, I used to do custom painting, so guess I'd do it myself...

    I think what I like about the Honda is that the parts that need painting (when they do) are all PLASTIC. Pop offs, and voila... fun times with the air guns! I think my red deluxe will be changing to a Tequila Sunrise.... hmmmm..

    Nice painting of the "Death Dealer"
