If the tags say black and it's a genuine Sandman I would paint it factory Black. If it were a low spec basket case and I hated black there are many colours from the original HJ colours you could choose from or any other make or model. I like most colours (except Chamois). What is the factory trim colour and do you plan to keep of change that? The one thing for sure if it's a HJ it gets HJ stripes and retains a standard nose cone if I have anything to do with it.
