I bought a cbr600 in the winter too......
I posted in the general area I guess not many people check it there and this site is heavily segregated based on engine size, anyway....here it is...
Now, I dig the orange, but the tribal graphics have got to go asap. I have read a few different things and I guess I should try to just remove them when its warmer out...with a blow dryer and goo-gone or something similar. i think it sucks, the tank is clear coated also....which means it makes my job much harder. Any feedback would be appreciated. I really hope it gets warmer soon, too ****in cold to ride right now.

I already removed the tribal stuff with the exception of the gas tank due to the fact that it's clear coated. It did take some patience and a blow dryer. I was in a rush too, so I left some adhesive on there, but it will come right off with goo-gone or even my thumb and the blow dryer. I will post a pic later today, I think it's a big improvement.
The whole tribal design isn't my thing...it makes me think of tribal tattoos which are like the gayest thing ever IMO (sorry if you have one).
I figured at a glance it does look clean enough, and if it bothers me that badly I'll just buy a new set of fairings or have someone just paint these a different color. Has anyone had any luck with the fairings they're selling on ebay?
Anyway, this bike is bad news...people ask why did you get another 600 (I just sold my 95 ZX-6)...but to be honest this has all the power I need...and the weight of the bike is really easy to work with. Still adjusting to the riding position, not as easy to duck behind the windshield as it was on the older ZX-6.
