Pick my new paint job!

Thats hard to say. I like the classic blue, but solid black is also nice.

I like the new avatar; finally looks like you have some fish!

For those of you who are wondering why I posted this here and not on the R1 or other bike forum, its because I already know what other Yamaha owners/haters are going to say. I really like the feedback I am getting from my fellow MFK members; and its nice to hear the outsiders perspective.

Of all the options available I've narrowed it down to these 5. I will admit that I am partial to two of them, based on appearance, cost, and where they are made.

I will make a decision by the end of the week.

Thats what I'm doing now; but for just a little more than the cost of the OEM tail and upper i can get a full aftermarket kit. Then i can sell the rest of the blue to make up the difference.
The thought to change from blue to anything else would never have crossed my mind if i wasnt already buying new fairings.
