Paint my bike!

[crofty1984]

All being well, I'll be picking up a zzr600 later today. It's been resprayed in black, quite badly if I'm honest. Ok, it's ste. Anyway, I thought I'd get some rattle cans have a bit of fun with it. Current ideas are:
Get some white, mask bits off, go zebra style.
Put a big skull and crossbones on the side. Not sure what I'd do with the rest of the bike.
Go NATO green and put army stencils on (a bit cliche?)

I'll put a photo up later.

Thanks for the suggestions 😊 I'm thinking about doing all the front Kawasaki green, then flames into black. Or maybe Focus st orange with black stripes. And also fixing the fuel gauge.

Don't paint it, you can buy small sheets of Vinyl wrap in anything you fancy for pennies on Ebay, Amazon Etc. Could even get a custom one made up.....

But suggestions wise a Digital Red/Blue Camo or Tiger/Zebra Stripes would be my choice, i also like the Sticker Bomb stuff which i'm thinking of doing to some dodgy patches on the OH's car.

Ooh, wrapping. Now there's a thought...

I'm genuinely considering blue chrome wrap and maybe something like a cartoon skulls stickerbomb wrap for the tank. Though I do like the black engine idea.

Right, blue chrome wrap ordered. Because if there's one thing a 55,000 mile '95 Kawasaki needs it's blue chrome wrap. I'll put up progress on here.

Massive anticlimax I'm afraid. I did buy it, but made a proper mangle of getting it on the bike. I just couldn't get it to mould properly to the shape (apparently the shiny ones are bad for this).
I'm going to just go metallic blue paint for the top half and silver for the bottom half, with black engine cases.
But to prove I DID try:





And Jesus, that bike's been apart more times than a we's ankles. Cracked and snapped mountings, mismatched bolts, rubber grommets missing...
Mind you, as soon as the new brake disc's on, she's back on the road!
Also, the Bonnie was on fire a little bit.
