surely if you buy a different colour than red your bike will be slower? :)

Ha ha, well if you don't ask, you don't get.
 
I don't mind the colour, but always get misty eyed over the blue and silver and grey ones.
 
I only bought the Fazer as it was cheap, I never meant to get sucked into messing about, doing it up etc, but I have and I realise that sportsbike looks aren't everything, for the real world and UK roads, it is a bloody brilliant bike.
 
I would like to make it look nicer, or maybe buy a later one with a black engine and different colour panels.... Hmmm.

Get the panels and tank vinyl wrapped, cheaper that a respray and you can remove it when you sell the bike (or not)

I (very gradually) got myself a full second set of 'everything' and changed from Silver to Polar Bear White overnight  :b
 
It might sound a bit OTT on the money side .. but you'll recover most of it when you change back  :rolleyes  well .. a fair bit anyway  :) . 
 
Good luck .. nice to see you enjoying yourself!

Good ideas, money is a bit tight for now to get more panels, was thinking of maybe having some vinyl applied, but it's probably end up looking shit, I had thought of something like some white or silver sections above the lights and maybe a thick stripe through the middle of the tank and tailpiece.
