I decided to go with black mids then match the orange on the lowers, all professionally done. I still may black out everything else, but I haven't decided yet.

Go black. then powder the rearsets, passenger pegs and exhaust sheild. in my oppinion, it looks funy with the black and silver mixed together. either do that or paint your rims silver. haha

Here line them all up, so that you can compare them easier. I vote either matte black or the gloss. The gloss would definately look better. And I think GSU_08RR's orange 600 looks freakin sick lol.



Gloss Black






Matte Black




Original Scheme.

im in the middle of getting prices for black mids, i wanted to swap out my silver for black and powdercoat the rearsets, pegs, etc. if you dont go through with it, i'll trade your buddy my silvers for his blacks.

i would like the black matt w/ black gloss only if the whole bike was black, but since you've got orange, i would try to find a painted gloss black mid-fairing or just stay with the silver, i think your bike looks sick w/ the silver mids

If I were you, I would do exactly what I did with my red 07 (just with orange). Have the mid fairings painted gloss black, and have the lowers painted Orange. If you did some orange wheel striping and blacked out all the rest of the crappy looking silver bits, I think your bike would looks absolutely AMAZING.........something like this..........
