Paint scheme for ZXR250C?

Post by Shifty »

Suggestions for a paint scheme on a ZXR250C? the C is the later one with the more modern single headlight, rather than the early round twin light scheme.

I was thinking this was fairly easy, assuming you can source a sticker kit cheaply enough. Other thoughts?

question is why... its a 250, with its sole purpose to be dropped, damaged and destroyed whilst being learnt on!

I loved my 250 very much and took real good care of her. I gave her a new outfit (the sexy metallic green with 3 colour pearls), every 4 months i would buy her the best shoes i can get (gpr70), every 3000kms I would give her new lube (motul 5100) and as soon as she gets dirty, I would give her a nice wash and then wax her body so she can shine once again.
