Saw new Candy Thunder Blue 12 today!
I would take it over the Black and Gold in a heart beat. Way cool looks!! Just the right tone of blue. The wheels don't jump out too much.
It will be interesting to see if the 02 12 wins the hearts of the US mags from the Busa this year. Sounds like it will be close.
Still haven't seen a red one with the silver wheels yet.

Just picked my beastie up today. Nice color. Looks as good in person as it does in the pics.

Mainly cosmetic. No pipe initially. I have a D&D on my '92 ZX11 so I'm looking forward to a little peace and quiet.  That silly rear fender is getting the dremel tomorrow AM, however. I like the Huge Industries clear round turn signals. Huge also sells a fender eliminator so I may go with their whole package for $168. If anybody has any experience with the Huge stuff, I'd appreciate feedback. I thought I'd have to raise the clip-ons but I felt comfortable on my 20 minute ride home. I'd like to polish the rims at some point. I'll add my HID (from my ZX-11)at some point. The twelve has two headlights so I'll need another igniter/ballast/D2S. Other than that, this engine is one strong mother; it handles better than than my other bike (Duh!). If the Akropovic isn't too loud, I'll probably toss that on with the obligatory PCIIIR.

Yor are right!! Walked in a dealership down Dallas way last Monday and that blue beauty was there calling my name. Red one sitting right beside it looked better to me, though. Sat on it and I can definitely feel the changes made. Skinnier seat, higher in the rear, new mirrors, new ....aw hell It was nice!!

The 02 red ones are brighter than the 2000s. It's not Candy Persimmon Red. Saw it a couple days ago...I liked it, but I like my red more.
