Track Bike Finally Painted

So I've owned the bike almost 4 years now and wasn't really worried about paint since it was a track bike. Finally got around to having my friend do it (had the money and ability to get the parts to and from him in Michigan). So now it may be doing double duty as a part time street bike too.

The original design was inspired by Baileyrock's 2007 750 track bike. I had the tail hump white in the original design, but since I had 2 of them, my buddy painted one white and one black. Which do you think looks better??

Some sort of decals will have to be next. Not many, but at least a couple. Oh, and maybe a new sweatband around the M/C reservoir. :biggrin:

Nice paint job. No decals except maybe a lower case "gsxr" in red or white on the tail light pods. I voted for the white cover. The black looks like spray paint on the factory girlie-perch.

Simple looks good. I'd go with the black as well. Seems to work without seeming misplaced or something.

Jeez........ Its a tough one. They both look good.
White just though.
Dont know about decals, think it looks good now, busy but not too busy. Maybe something GSXR in black on the tail if you leave the hump white.

Make a bump pad in black for the white cover.

Add a little red here and there too while you're at it. Just a little...

Looks good!
