Ya' know Jay, that is going to make it really, really difficult to convince any LEO that it was not you he saw speeding / blowing through a stop sign, etc. I can hear it now: "Honest Officer, it was the other blue, white, green, red and gold bike that you saw do that, not my blue, white, green red and gold bike....".

Jay will be too busy washing and polishing his bike to be out riding, so no worries there.
Have you broken 10k yet Jay?

OK, that's better. You scared me for a minute with the temporary placement of the red tank.

Hmmm, can I see it with the white smuggler on there? (I'm sure you have one right?)  ;D

I was worried about the white whale between your legs, but with the techspecs back on it looks way cool.

Agreed MP! I was worried about the same, but I new the Techspec would tie it together with the black badges as well.  :) :chugbeer:

Enough with the suspense! Which color did you get squirted on your giant new top case??

That is one wild lookin' scheme! You're probably only ever gonna pass 3 or 4 other bikes with that same scheme  :P

Wait! Is this a political statement? ... something about the ol' Green, White & Blue. Hmm, I can't think of any topics to connect it  ???

Anyway, the all-red was my fave, but fantastic that you're willing to try so many schemes  :thumbs:

I knew the Techspec would tie it together with the black badges as well.  :) :chugbeer:

That is the part I would have screwed up (well, perhaps the most obvious part I would have screwed up), the badges, I would have done them in blue like the fins and I would have regretted it as soon as I stood back and took a big picture look at it. Well done ZG.  :thumbs:

Good question!  :popcorn:

I look at the side view and try to imagine ZG sitting on the bike...and....I think he is going to need a blue helmet to complete the paint scheme. Yes? No?  :-\

Is it just the perspective that makes the front badge look like Kawasakl ?

Can't say I'm real giggly about that color combination.  White and blue..yes.   All green....yes.   Mixture of both, not so much.

No worries Sparky, the good thing about this set is I can change things around a lot for different combo's, blue/white/green, blue/white/blue, blue/white red, and solid blue.  :) :chugbeer:
