Yamaha weren't totally innocent either

Or if that isn't to sir's taste....

Yeah, a pink sports bike - nice.

I had a 93 CBR600F.  Dead easy to keep clean.  And they looked fab with the right paint job.  I mean how sweet is this?[Image: 2.jpg]

Haha I learnt to ride a bike on a TZR 125 with that paint scheme ☺

Then the paint shop started doing drugs.  I think it must have been heroin at Honda.  I mean this is just depressing……[Image: 1a418e2aa631afa04970e4bc2118dc77.jpg]

Here’s mine.  I thought it looked fab.  I think it still looks good, but I guess the paint shop boys were heading towards the tipping point at this stage.

That’s trick for a 125!  The pink doesn’t do it any favours though :lol  Love the tiny pipe. 8)

I thought that was just a standard 2 stroke thing? My rs250 had 2 tiny pipes too?
That went like stink but sounded like crap Haha like someone blowing a trumpet Into a tin can ?


Re: Is this the best standard paint job on any bike ever? - VNA - 29-11-19

Yeah the expansion chamber and small pipe like most two strokes, but's a super tiny pipe before the silencer. Smile

I'd agree the 2002 red'n'black was one of best. Then they ruined it the following year by reversing the colours. Tried hard to get one of these but my RRW had lost too much, so the finances couldn't stretch to it. Kept it another 14 years, before letting it go. :'(

I like Suzuki with their white and blue thing, and this one with lots of black.I'm not a sportsbike dude, but this looks good.

That's where I bought my Fz1 haha


Re: Is this the best standard paint job on any bike ever? - Dudeofrude - 29-11-19

And while I'm on that note.... I may be a tad bias but what a stunning paint job ?? was literally the reason I bought it ?


Re: Is this the best standard paint job on any bike ever? - dazza - 29-11-19

That's a brutal looking bike Dudeofrude. I love these, especially coupled with the RG500

Now and agian the Japanese could nail it though;

Simplicity isn't it. And it works. Hard to believe that model is nearly 35 years old now :eek .

Re: Is this the best standard paint job on any bike ever? - vinnyb - 30-11-19

Going back a few years but I like this.

I still love the colour of my old Gixxer, only ever saw one other on the road.
