I have my new rune on order and will be doing a custom paint scheme when it gets here. I have been looking for pics of custom runes but have not found anything. Any pics that you could post would really be appreciated.

I have been doing the vtx's and m109s for a long time and now look forward to doing some killer sets on the rune.

There was also a black one some time back that had lava painted on it.

Hope that helps!

If i was going to custom paint my rune it would be the wizard and the rune stones from the rune vidoe. that would be hot. spoke to Mike from www.cycledelics.com (http://www.cycledelics.com) $5000.00

Wow I love the first one. I do a lot of graphics and airbrushing but murals are still a little out of me league. Thanks for the help gives me some ideas. I am debating on how far to take it without going overboard.

I may do something like I did for the 109 when I first bought it.

Similar to your 109, you could try a variation on flames: flowing gold tresses of a Valkyrie. Since the 12 Valkyries escorted slain warriors to Valhalla, the background colours could be shades of red, representing the blood of the slain.

Actually, I remembered most of those, so clicked in eBay on completed listings and got most. The Red rune one was from one of the forums here.

But, they're all nice to watch :wink:


It's coming down to a black one for me, and get an airbrushed mural of Christ coming out of Heaven on a cloud...

Or maybe His face, similar to the art style of a scratchboard. So basically it looks like the darkness was scratched away to reveal Christ's face.

The shroud of Turin would look really cool.

Hey vtxoak,

By the looks of your 109, you don't need our advice when it comes to killer paint jobs. How about some other views of your bike. Outstanding!

Thanks for the comments, I had more pictures on bigbike riders, but need to remove them for some of my recent paint sets. I do between 1-2 bikes a week but the rune is in a different class and want it to be very unique.

Personally, I think this paint job rocks! And I'm not just saying that because it's my bike.. :wink:

Hi Darek,

Nice to see you back posting ! Cool paint job ! - Really cool ! - Cool website also - is it yours ?

Well, about the alien theme in the painting job - I hope your Rune isen't an alien in Poland - it seems that you take good care of it, so that it feels "at home" ... :wink:

Well, somehow I got the perception, that you only had to do with Chuck's leftovers ... :roll: :lol:

- Hey, was Chuck riding at the Rune Rally II with a Nazi Iron Cross - Rich did you notice it ?

- Very cool bike, Darek :!: 8)

I'm trying to figure out what the extra chrome pieces are in the first 2 pics.
Need a shot of the whole bike.

Very nice color combinations, doing something similar on my 109.

I always liked the green and blue one. Though the alien is pretty cool, to say the least.

Btw, the iron cross isn't so much a Nazi thing (like the Swastica, which originally was a Buddhist symbol of good fortune), but more common as being associated with the German military from WW1.

Hi Darek,

Nice to see you back posting ! Cool paint job ! - Really cool ! - Cool website also - is it yours ?

No it isn't mine...It's Peter Parczewski site - probably the best bike painter in Poland


Well, about the alien theme in the painting job - I hope your Rune isen't an alien in Poland - it seems that you take good care of it, so that it feels "at home" ... :wink:

My Rune is completely stock, well except the modified seat...As You can see number of Runes in Poland grows every year. This Alien Rune is new in Poland. I know the owner - he previously had VTX. The only problem is to contact all of the Rune owners in my country. When I'll finish polish version of my website (www.valkyrie.pl (http://www.valkyrie.pl)) it will be much easier.

Nice jewellery is obligatory when riding the Rune
