Well seeing as how its a 2 color combo theres not many colors that will work with orange, hence the blue! plus i wanted something to brighten it up a bit as the black simply doesn't do it.

Thank you....... yes my whole idea was based around having something unique / diff, which it is indeed. The wheels are powder coated, but i forget the color. The seat covers are Second Look, and believe it or not the bike was delivered with them without my knowledge, so a bonus i guess you could say.

Good looking bike. The second best screaming pumpkin I have seen. The other one may have just been a photoshop special, however. It was in Red Bull colors. It looked really bad *ss. A friend has a pumpkin ZX10 and he contacted Red Bull about duplicating that bike. They said they would not give him permission to use the color scheme. I didn't know they could stop him from painting his bike anyway he wanted.

He can paint it similarly, but forget about using the Red Bull name. As long as he makes it different "enough" it'll be okay.
By the way, unless they are paying me money I'm not putting anyone's name on my bike.

...so I wonder...does it make it an infringement to stick company logo decals, ie. Muzzy's, Jardine, K&N, Dunlop, Hooters, etc. on your bike?..I would think that companies wouldn't mind the free advertising...but I'm with you on this, JW...unless a company is paying me (or has supported my in some way, ie. gratis, goodguy deals, or if I believe in their product, my bikes are sano of decals on the bodywerk...and I wish the "Kawasaki" wasn't under the clear on the tank of the 10R...someone said it right: the 10R's lines are strong enough that it doesn't need boy-racer graphics...and I think its easily recognizable as a Ninja...
