I like that a lot, very clean build. I am so glad you chose one highlight colour and stuck with it instead of trying to put all the colours on the bike.

Sean's dead right , getting a T/A looking balanced is tricky , but easy too overdo. :-\
So much going on with the decals and pads ,, rather than compliment them ,it's better to keep the idea of "less is more"
One colour or , probably just chrome or black parts are the best
I chose a red Kashi on mine , just because Andy Patterson used one most of the time
