Indeed :smt065 too many daves....
Yeah it was directed at you, would be nice but like you say moneys a bit of an issue with a decent respray. Think the rizla blue would be bright enough though.

Re: Lower fairing questions

Hmmm... a couple of quotes have come out waaaay more than I wanted. Went to a good place today, friendly chap, but still £250-300 because of the fact it is a pearl paint. :(
So, I am wondering. Should I just resort to doing it myself? (I am happy to do the spraying... it just won't match quite as well (damn pearl)). Otherwise, could I use strategic stripes or black areas to minimise the effect of a slightly different shade? Maybe then I can get away with just standard yellow paint from a bodyshop?

Hi Chompy,
I emailled them and am awaiting a reply. Hmmm.. for that much, I may as well have bought them direct from Suzuki. Bugger. Why can't my bike be just a normal single colour!

sorry mate for sum reason i was thinking its the whole bike. Give the guys at portsmouth a ring, they did loads of stuff for me for £200. There like an industrial estate place so best to ring them, there be able to match the colour for you :D
