Thinking about painting the bike once I get the busted fairings replaced and am torn between a few colors.

I am a huge fan of the Kawasaki Green...and the bike was originally Kawi Green

But I bought a bag of M&Ms and damn if the colors didn't inspire me...

The Yellow, Blue and Green M&Ms are the perfect hues...No red, cause I hate red. Initially I was going to have it painted a pearl white...


Just wondering what others might think...

Go nuts. Airbrush skulls or flames or whatever the hell floats your boat. I'd help.

Pearl white with some tasteful, not over the top airbrushed graphics would be the hottness!!

Was thinking about doing pearl white and then getting a kit from tapeworks.com and having that installed then clear coats...so the tape kits would be under the clear coat.

But aribrush idea is sinking in...need some ideas!

Black base with some airbrush effects would be my choice. I'd also purchase a carbon front fender and maybe a few other available carbon pieces. Airbrush over carbon is really a cool effect!!! I'm not a fan of white just because it always reminds me of a police bike no matter what you do to it afterwards. Just my .02.

No black....bike is already invisible, no need to make it even more so.

That blue is pretty hot!

Pretty much I am down to Blue or White....I actually had considered orange, but I think tht would grow old quick.

That last one may be something to work with...blue and white....that way I can keep my blue riding jacket and white helmet...

Hmmm....

Thanks!!!
