quote: Nice!!!............I slightly lean towards the blue.........could you post a close up of the paint I'm trying to tell if its the same color as my 2004 ZX 12 was or if its a flatter less shiny blue?
I'll get better pics later, but the color, according to Kawasaki, is "Candy Surf Blue." I don't think that the camera will ever capture the true color. In fact, the color changes depending on if you are looking straight at the panel or at an angle. Look at the pics on Kawasaki's site.
Kawasaki tends to keep the same name of a particular color when used on different bikes in different years. A quick Google says that it was used on the 2009 ZX-6R and the 2010 Vulcan 900.
The other blues are Candy Thunder Blue and Candy Plasma Blue and maybe more??? I'm sure that current owners could chime in on what color they have.
EDIT: NM, I just saw fullzx12r's post ............................

Congrats on the new ride. Was just at my local dealer today and they didn't have any in yet. I think if I decide to get one it will either be the green se or the blue.

Sounds good!
Actually, the main reason I like the green SE is because of the wheels, but that can be done to mine. You already know that a lot of the ZRX guys polish theirs.
