thanks for the response everyone,
i had a change of heart on the golds decals im gonna go with black to match the frame, and the wheels will have a black pinstripe around the edge,moto gp style.
i had the nod from the painter today but it will take about 2 weeks.

but it will be worth it when its done.

Gee... everyone seems so keen on the green one. My first thought was that Kawasaki had somehow got a hold of it & stuffed it up as they tend to do with greens...
If you ate yourself would you become twice as big or simply disappear?

I've liked green for ages and thought it would look good on a storm :

Interesting link, but no pics to prove your point. I liked the response from Seanus...

"...Kawasaki does everything it can think of to make their bikes ugly. They are expert at it. Bit like the English cricketers at losing to Australia by 8 wickets expert."

Haven't really thought about it. Had an ex with a candy-apple red Blackbird which looked pretty hot, but not so sure for the storm. Maybe the silver, but with a tinge of blue or green (I don't dislike green, just what Kawasaki keeps doing to it...). Like the bold rich colours, but prefer ones that aren't too common. There are too many blue bikes & too many red bikes (offending as many as I can here... :roll: ). Am currently proud owner of yellow (older, nicer yellow), but even they're becoming a tad too frequently seen.

Thinking about it, that was a rather tall question considering the standard colours are black, orange, blue, yellow, teal, silver, red and matt black, (I hope I haven't missed any) which doesn't leave many for you to choose from :!:
