Finally got the bike back on the road and already looking at what I can do to it. It's just had a full service, so gonna wait till next spring then strip it clean it and respray it.
Decided I am gonna spray it differently for next summer. Had a little play with Paintshop to see what it should look like and came up with this. It's like the original but just changed the colours round a bit and got rid of the blue.

Is my white ZXR rubbing off on people?
I think its looks ok, but the white does dominate over the green.

I'm hoping to break the white up a bit as I agree it is a bit overpowering. I am thinking that the shape of the bike with shadows etc may make the white not look so dominant.

Before you do commit yourself, thought you might like to know you would be getting a nosecone with a crack in it and a petrol tank with a dent in it!!
