So I'm painting the cbr600rr I just picked up, the old red was fine could have shined it up but decided I'll repaint.
I have sent out the fairing for paint, I'm painting it White and lower fairings black.

I was looking into oem style decals, just leaving it white will be to plain. I cant decide what colour I'd like to throw into the mix.
So far I've the obvious colour for decal's would be black, Gold would also work.

I would like to here what you guys/girls think I should put on it it.

Thanks in advance for your input.

I always liked the sharpie artwork. Something like this:

thats some crazy stuff, but to crazy for me. lol

IMO, I can't get enough of the Konika Minolta CBR. White with a black lower, and a splash of blue to top it off.

Something to think about.

thats really nice, I have a 04 cbr600 by the way. but the konikka decals still look nice and similar on that year too. just finding them with all the decals is hard, the interweb is just full of crap when i try searching i keep getting fairing kits from china.

You should paint it OEM GSXR in the retro anni livery. No one will ever forget your bike. No one.

You should give drew a call at trackside cutz he will custom make any designs you need, and his pricing is awsome
I vote for charcoal gray metallic letters

Price isn't overly bad.

how do i get his number?? not sure who drew is.

@carboncat yes i was considering these colours too, almost everything seems to go well with white. I should have the fairings in by the weekend Ill post pictures maybe we can Photoshop some decals on.

@gentlemanRacer camo does look nice, I saw some cbr's with it over at 600rr.net

@Dresden Not bad but i wonder how long it would take to ship from Europe.

I already sent fairings for paint, and dont want to deal with fitment issues on aftermarket fairings. also the link you put doesn't work.

 

[js2021]

Thats before I sent for paint(not the kawi), sorry only picture I have.

simple is best in my humble opinion...

Check out Shinzo werkz for graphics and vinyl work.

Is Shinzo even in business anymore? I tried contacting them a while ago and nobody got back to me...

 

[LoneRonin]

the original paint on that looks awesome and seems in good condition...
If you know where to get em from the China fairings fit perfect and look good. It never hurts to have an extra set of fairings in case something stupid happens, and if you ever sell it, its best to have the originals.

I got China ones. Fit about 98%. Looked great.

So good that I also bought one for my 1000. Also fit about 98%.

 

[js2021]

@kuro where did you get those? and how much? .

@LoneRonin I may get a spare set down the road, but my fairing are sanded down by now and probably ready for paint.

@supahtim I couldn't find anything bike related from either.
