Another Thing I Was Wrong About
I tried to tell you guys the blue is totally different. But everyone said is was the light . Now I know most everyone knows this. Being that all the specs ect are on the kawi site.
Diablo Black, Candy Plasma Blue, Special Edition: Pearl Crystal White. It is the same color as the ZX10 - Lime Green, Passion Red, Candy Plasma Blue, Ebony.
That sucks having the 10 the same color. I think anyway.
I was happy about this the first time I saw the new pic here. When you guys posted it.
Now the candy thunder blue looks like a one time color.

for a pretty shade of blue, I rally liked the candy plasma, the zx636 got that color option in 2006.
Candy thunder blue has been around for many years already Vak,
500, zxr1200, etc ....
If your lookin for a limited version.... get the white with red flames,
:P
I'm bettin they only make that model once!
Now I wonder what the diff is between ebony, and diablo black?

Me too..............I hope it's not the same color as the 04 ZX10R.............  I hated all that metalic flake in the paint. Looked like it was dusty all the time..............:P

+1, but when I saw the 2006 blue in person, it is neat, and I don't really like blue.

I like the blue paint scheme on the '06 better...........too much blue on the '07 now. On the '06 the black fairing lowers are at the same angle as the side frame on the bike (see picture below) It is a more integrated appearance, as it follows the natural lines of the bike. Silver wheels on the '07 are too light on a medium blue bike, black wheels would have looked better. I also prefer the rear undertray by the back wheel in black versus blue. My 2 cents worth.

the European anthracite gray is the best looking paint from the kawasaki oem so far.
it almost makes a 14 look tolerable.

The Diablo Black is a metallic color, but it's not at all like the Metallic Spark Black on a 10. It's way cleaner, deeper, has much less metallic in it. It definitley doesn't look dusty or dirty, I know exactly what you mean when you say that.

I feel the same way. Not knocking the new blue. I just like the candy thunder blue better. And I don't like the 10's having the same paint schemes and colors. So I am hoping that our blue is going to be a one year only. That would be nice.
