Having just finished a full re-spray on the deauville (from beige to white Cool ) i now want to re-spray the zzr6:

I like red bikes,but being a kawasaki i'm being told it has to be green.I dont really like green.

Also fancy all black?

I'd love to paint it the same colour as binge's cbr400 aswell (think it was audi blue?) but not sure how good it would look as a d.i.y. effort.
This will be done in my shed with the compressor so no rattle cans,but also not a lot of heat.
The white i just did on the deauville was just base-coat white with laquer over that and it's turned out pretty good.

Would also prefer no stickers on the new paint so maybe some sort of 2 tone paint job?

Any suggestions?

Thanks
dave

Kwak green is the worst colour ever. Sick

I liked this colour red because you hardly ever saw it.

I saw a Triumph Daytona 650 on Tom Conway's at Langley Moor in Ferrari red a couple of weeks ago and it looked absolutely sexalicious.

Hope he doesn't sell it before December (most likely will but the hope is there) because I'd buy it when my restriction is up.

A Kawasaki does have to be green in my books.

Not sure that the ZZR would be able to pull off the bile green though.
