It is looking good. I would say the red should be a candy red with either gun metal grey or a metallic black outline.

+1 on the rearsets and passenger pegs.

Love the 1st scheme. Its very unique. I wouls also agree that the red should have a thin outline in black to make the red pop from the white.

Second is win. I do agree with Zac. There's too much negative space by the air intake. Maybe just add a little splash of something.

Who's Zac?

anyway lol...

i like the second but after looking at it yet again... i beleive you should leave the wing filled black but just pinstripe outlife everything else... the other blotches of black kinda dont look quite right but that just my opinion... to each his own

I still think it looks like someone was murdered next to your bike.

im liking the second scheme a lot. that black adds so much to the bike. and the red rim strips.. looks awesome.. ( get reflective ) and with the big pipe.. you should slim it down to a black level one race exhaust.. but other then that it looks nice!

zmds18- i agre with more color/graphics on the lower front fairing..


you should try to put the CBR emblems on it.... seewhat that looks like...

I already have the carbon Two Bros M5 can so it isn't going anywhere, and the rim tape is already on, I was thinking about wither making the wings bigger to cover more of the tank or adding the CBR logo and maybe making the wings more smooth so it doesn't look like a crime scene.

Id throw some more carbon fiber on your bike too(heel plates or tank pad or clutch-stator covers, ect.) Looks way better if their made from REAL carbon fiber and not the "printed" fake carbon fiber which is all too common anymore! You know what I'm refering to, im sure. The custom paint scheme is coming along nicely too.
