A while back - before the crash - somebody posted some pictures of some cool paint mods that they did to an 08. It had some black around the headlight and other places ,and I think it ended up with Kawi Green wheels!
If that poster is still around ,could you put some pics back up ? Like to see it again ( well ,maybe not the green wheels! ;D )

Always looking for ideas myself......

This was a really good look , imho. Kind of broke up the solid silver , know what I mean ? Maybe the op hasn't found the new forum yet .
Anybody remember this one ?

Anybody have pics to add to this thread? I would love to see more of Phil's bike with bags on it. I am still thinking about painting my bike and can't make up my mind whether I want to go understated (gun metal grey) or bright (red, orange, green).

Yes, black wheels. I like it.
-
I like the red, but I don't think I need any more attention when I am riding. The green is what I am leaning towards........black wheels are already taken care of. A shade of copper is another one that I am thinking about.

I remember a pearl white that was posted a while back that was pretty sweet. I like a dark metal flake green as well....

Are you gonna powdercoat them while you've got it all apart Jeremy? I recommend it, it's really inexpensive and will last forever...

Yes I am, they will be either gloss or satin black.
@DONB

JD do kawi green that would look awesome and with the black rims!
-
also paint the lowers to match it really helps the bike look even better.
-
Jeremy, I am SOOO close to painting mine that EXACT color. I really like to two tone gun metal and that copper, but then some clown would mistake me for a Hardley! There is a sweet subtle mint green that Chevy used on their Cadillac, very similar to the Goldwing green only better.

I've always liked orange and black bikes, like this VFR (which also happens to be supercharged).

I still love the Kawa GREEN !
But, I'd hate to take off all the Tupperware and have it painted. BTDTX2 before.
Wonder how much the painted Tupperware goes for if I buy a 2nd set .... I'd keep the black parts black and powder coat the wheels BLACK, too.
Now, yer talkin' .... now, I'm listenin' !

If anyone is interested in the red bike referred to in the EBAY post, It is close to where I live and I'd be happy to check it out for anyone considering it, please note it's a "salvage" title.

Sure is an ugly wench without her clothes on.

Phil, I wanna know how many screws did you have left over? Try as I might, I always seem to have one or two....

Pearl white would work. I always like the Busa in white. ;)

Damn...doesn't make for a naked bike does it. Might be good for the next Michael Bay movie though ;D

I agree, it looks like a Decepticon.
