The bike is nearly fixed now thanks to YC ... and my Credit cards lol ..
New Tank
Gixxer k1 600 front end .
New Black Renthal ultra lows .
New Black Hel Lines .
I kinda like the blue/black look ....
Just need to get the front wheel painted black
and was thinking of getting the sides of the mini fly screen done in the same blue and you know the back middle piece of the tail fairing Done in blue too. (not the seat cowl)
and some blue rim tape.
What ya think ??

All the pros use MS Paint - see for yourself (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hxx2KcPWWZg). Also like their Coal video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=71kckb8hhOQ).
Or maybe get the wheels spayed...
My local vet will not do this with bike wheels.

Looking at the pics the pics, you may want to get someone else to do the rimtape for you ;)

lol :D
get it painted black. reason being is that the tank is the first thing that your eyes are drawn to when you look at it. this in turn does not make it aesthetically pleasing. your bike before the damage was really nice. but each to their own and all that...
