Nice paint

I really like this paint scheme on Pegram's bike. Nice throwback to the Honda factory colors of the 80's. OK, I'm old.

Re: Nice paint

Well, I'm not considering repainting the blade, I like the all black look. Besides, if I was going to do a retro paint job it would be on a VFR800.........

This one just needs white wheels.

Everytime I convince myself that age is just a number you guys remind me of just how old I'm getting.

Re: Nice paint

The new tails are so skimpy, I wonder if they're going to tell racers to start putting numbers on the side fairings again like #5 above?

Re: Nice paint

That could be cool. MotoGP bikes already just have the numbers painted on w/o having a number plate, I dont think it would detract too much.

BTW, the best looking tail is the 999R, IMO, but I saw a 636 last week that looked like it had a rectangular exhaust... ???
