Here is an orange Interstate that I owned a number of years ago.  I do not remember the name of the color.

That bike is not bad looking even without the paint job.  It reminds me of Johnny Cash singing,

I'd get it one piece at a time
And it wouldn't cost me a dime
You'll know it's me when I come through your town
I'm gonna ride around in style
I'm gonna drive everybody wild
'Cause I'll have the only one there is around.

I do like that orange, almost copper penny color.

thanks everyone.
I am kicking around the idea of a second color. I would really like to know what would happen if I mixed it up with the pearl Sonoma Green. I do have some spare parts to experiment with

The secondary color green ?  I don't like to be critical of others bikes, but I wouldn't do it. I mean for Halloween it would be ok. But the other 364 days I don't know. I think the suggestion of silver sounds good. White might be good also.  But you know we are all going to have our opinions but it's yours that matters.  cooldude

I love the color - did mine that tone.  House of Colors Gamma Gold base with Copper pearl and metallic flake.  Looks copper during twilight, burnt orange after dark, and has gold highlights in the sunshine.  Still need to rebadge, but I have been enjoying seeing people who don't know Valkyries trying to figure out what it is.

Excuse the blurry picture - that happens at 75mph   angel

Look up Quebec Express.  Norman's bike was award winning in that color, and one of the Canadian mags did a big spread on it.  You will have to dig way back, as he hasn't been around for a few years, he had a good glass pack installation guide in the Tech Board.  He did a great job customizing it into a one of a kind.
