What paintjob for the ZXR?

[1vanvan1]

Similar. Although the are completely different they both look good.

Needs tinted screen

Na, think the previous effort was better. I think the tails not pointy enough to suit that paint job.

I started out reading this thinking 'fuck what a load of hassle for a ZXR'. I guess I can say that cause I love the way mine looks already

The thing is I've changed my mind after seeing skiddy get all gooey over it.

a) if it's the only bike you can afford you might as well for go for broke (pity about the spray can job tho..)

and

b) if your biked looked like that I bet you'd think twice about dropping it every time you rode it and it might chill you down a tad skidMark.

So yeah hurry your arse up and get it done already.

and get some ZX-2R stickers like that orange one at Red Baron has. Apparently they were branded ZX-2R in either Japan or the US. Can't remember now but either was it's classssssssssssssy.

decided to see what it looks like with more curves......is it too refined?

2nd pic i slightly changed the black bit below the rider seat...and took off the number plate spade

3rd pic is a photoshop with same graphics as other pics but done from a rear left view...

4th pic is with black frame, side view...


me thinks we have our final product, anybody think theres anything else that could do with a little tweak here n there?

[skidMark]

[tri boy]

Looks pretty good.
That will grab some attention. (not plods though please SM).

Morning guys, those other paint schemes are looking pretty cool aswell. Just remember you've gotta try and paint the final product. But it's all in the prep work, so go for broke man! Gonna be the coolest looking ZXR, just dont go scratching this paint job.

Paint it REPSOL

You should adjust the orange on the front fairing to roughly the angle I've got the red line at in this photo. At the moment it's pointing in an awkward direction and doesn't go with the rest of the lines on the bike.

Otherwise it's looking mint, that's some excellent designing there

yeah i surpose but, it just seems to be the recent trend in bike these days. The thing that really annoys me about modern sports bikes is that they have black frames, swing arms etc but leave the rear sets alloy. It looks stupid on a fully black bike to have shiney alloy on it. They should make it black from the factory!

I was looking at my all black VFR and seeing the nicely polished rear sets and I thought it would be a good idea to paint them black to suit, only they're so perfectly plished I don't want to ruin them and I could see my boots rubbing the paint off and it'll look shitty quickly.

I am going to paint the exhaust system and fork lowers black when I get a chance. Then I'll have to paint the rear sets cause they'll be the only thing left in another colour
