just pick something and paint it. if you don't like it, paint it again in a few months

 

my F3 was in one solid color and I think it looked awesome. Although fancy paint jobs look awesome they don't float my boat. I think the flat black would look awesome with black decals. The only thing i don't like about black backs are they harder to see. We have a hard enough time being seen by cagers and an all black bike makes it that much harder. Do some photoshop or check out bikepics.com to see what others have done to their cbr's. But don't let what other people on the forum think effect your choice. All in all its your bike you have to live with it, not us. Good luck.

 

I think flat black with gloss decals would look awesome also, maybe a little silver pinstriping around the edge of the decal for pop.

 

Ya I need to paint it know before i go crazy messing with it and before i know it it will be all nice and customized to fit me but STILL LIME GREEN!!!! How you like my new turn signal?

 

get some color change(chameleon) paint then you have the best of 3 worlds!..

 

Find a paint shop that has some House of Kolor paint chips...or you can get them on eBay. They have some Kameleon Kolors and HOK Pearls that are nice...I thought about them when I bought paint but got the Kandy Oriental Blue instead...

 

im sorta doin the same thing with my f2.....though...i plan to go the vinyl route.....with the same vinyl that the use for wraps on cars and trucks.....on the side i do screen printing and vinyl applications....should come out very good with high hopes.....maybe a route you mght wanna take...in fact check out www.visitcreativedreams.com not sure if they have a samples of jobs on vehicles or not....but i do know they have some others stuff up there...check'em out...
