Wanted: photos of uniquely painted airheads

I bought a new project bike with the thought of doing a "semi-unique" look. Not a cafe racer, that's been done to death, but one of those deals where the frame isn't black and the wheels not silver. (Of course the project I ended up doesn't need the cosmetics done immediately). I recall seeing some unique bikes at the 2019 Rally. Red frame, red wheels, etc. Anyone have photos like this around?
 
Here's one from Des Moines.

I remember seeing a picture of a red frame and wheel airhead at Lebanon, but I can't find it.
 
Here are a couple of photos...one from the St. Paul Rally, and the other from Das Rally.

A re-moded R80ST

A slightly modified R80ST. UP-gunned with Siebenrock 1090 Cylinders, classic valve covers, some old Wixom bags. I think the colour is from a Jeep.
 
Awesome, keep 'em coming. The GS looking thing from the Rally is what I was thinking....so few dare to change the frame color. I remember that orange/white one. It was up by the the pavilion.

@sgtbill....looks like "plum"! :)
 
You probably have already done so, but “Pictures from the Rally(s)” in “Best of the Forum” in the top section of the Forum has a few photos. (A little ways down from the top of the first page.)
