90s sports bike, 2 round backlights?
Hi Guys.
I saw a bike a month ago, it looked like a 90s style japanese sportsbike. It was white with purple/blue/red-ish paint stripes. The backlights are two red circles placed side by side. Do you know which bike it might have been? I thought it could have been an FZR, but in all the pictures I find, they are rectangular lights on top of each other.

What's with the censored swear word?!
Did you mean to put 'white' but hit an 's' key instead of a 'w'?!

Hi Chris. Yes I meant white. Don't know how I messed it up.
Thanks for pointing it out. Do you know the bike? |

Re: 90s sports bike, 2 round backlights?
Opening guess:
1998 - 2002 ZX6R G/J/A1P. The G1 & G2 models had some red/green/purple colours. The rear is not technically 2 round lights, it's one piece, but some owners fitted a piece of plastic trim to cover the join so it would give 2 distinct round lights: Trim piece fitted (green undertray not required) Failing a ZX6R, I'll go equivalent ZX9R C/E model Jambo

Thought it was a bit harsh describing it as a 's hite'!

It was much like the example you found, but the lights were perfectly circular, not parabolic
The paint scheme was like this one: |
