Here you go, hope it helps. I like them both equally, wish I can give you an opinion but I personaly would be happy with either one. I'd have to see both in person. Tough choice. Voted for the yellow paint one anyway. The price is good as long as it's good paint and matches perfect. Hope it works out for you. Don't forget to post pics when it's done. Enjoy!

i vote for blue with yellow sticker. it is more complete for me, almost like original came from the factory. other issue is yellow is sticker and can be different in shinning even if the colour exactly matched. get your rims painted blue too (it will be like old zx9r series, darn beatiful) , i have grey bike, thinking to paint lower fairing and the wheels, so i don't like the grey wheels, have to find correct colour that will seems came as original.

i say leave it black and change the logo to yellow. over time you will get rock chips, scuffs, scratches etc. especially on the lower. and the black will hide these imperfections better than any other color.

edit: forgot to add, if you have your mind dead-set on painting it, go with the blue. looks factory.

you are right both do look good it will be hard......... ill tell you one thing though, with the bottom being yellow it stands out alot... maybe too much. that blue looks on point.

I voted blue with yellow sticker. I've got the same bike and I like that look -- now you've got me interested in painting mine.

Maybe reponek will be so nice as to Photoshop it again with a blue rear fender (the one at the front of the wheel, I forget the name of it) ... :>)

I like the yellow better, but what the hell; you should paint the whole bike.

Here you go. Blue cowl, blue hugger, blue wheels and black swingarm. Tried to black out the rear sets but it was difficult on Photoshop. If I were to get this bike I would get a set of black rear sets and do the other changes also.
