Touring Motorcycle With Bags Coloring Page

This Touring Motorcycle With Bags Coloring Page shows the machine square from the front, tall windshield up and a saddlebag hanging on each side. It is a free printable page from our touring motorcycle coloring pages, and it is the widest drawing in the set: the bags push it out past the handlebars on both sides, so the bike fills the sheet edge to edge without any background at all.

How this coloring page was created

For this page we entered the concept: "A big touring motorcycle seen from the front, its tall windshield above and saddlebags and a top case behind" on Colorin AI and generated a print ready coloring page in seconds. One thing to note before anyone goes looking for it: the top case is not visible in the drawing. From dead ahead it sits directly behind the windshield and is hidden, which is exactly right for the angle, so the concept asked for four things and the picture honestly shows three.

"Seen from the front" is what forced the symmetry, and it is also what cost the top case. A three quarter view would have shown it, but it would have hidden one of the two saddlebags instead.

This touring motorcycle coloring page features

The row of rivets along the base of the windshield is the detail that gives this drawing its character. It is a single line of small circles running the full width of the screen, and it is the sort of thing real touring bikes have and cartoon bikes never do.

Practically, it is also the page's best small job. Everything else here is large, so a child who wants somewhere careful to work has one clear place to go, and it is short enough to finish rather than abandon.

Counting the front: the windshield is one tall rounded panel over a trim strip carrying about fourteen round rivets. Two mirrors sit on stalks at the top corners. The headlight is a large circle with a shape drawn inside it, flanked by two round auxiliary lamps on each side. Each saddlebag carries a double chevron line across its face, so four chevrons in all, and the two bags mirror each other exactly. Tubular crash bars loop out in front of the engine on both sides, and the front tire below shows about sixteen chevron treads under a smooth fender.

Coloring Ideas and Techniques

Touring bikes are usually finished in one deep color from nose to tail, so pick a single strong shade for the fairing and both bags and let the chrome pieces be everything else. It looks more like the real machine than a bike with five different colors on it, and it is faster to do.

Leave the windshield uncolored. It is glass, it is the largest single area on the sheet, and anything laid across it will make the bike look like it is wearing a mask. If it needs something, a line of pale blue along the very top edge is enough to say the light is catching it.
