Track bike paint job "done"

I know it's not a Kawasaki but it has been molested by a few as seen by the stickers so I'm open to all colour suggestions
So I've had the trackie for a year or so and now I'm confident I'm not going to crash every time I scream around a track I've decided it needs a new look/paint job
Can I get some suggestions from you artistic photo shop types? I know it's not a Kawasaki but it has been molested by a few during sleepovers as seen by the stickers so I'm open to all colour suggestions
I do have a complete second set of gear so I could do a home and away racing strip

I think that is the only logical solution.

Stevo - what I reckon you should do, is paint it up in Team Yamaha colours - either yellow with the black checker, or perhaps even R1 blue with a yellow checker. Either one would look really good on your bike.

That second one - the Limited Edition ABS Fazer !!! that's it mate. Not so different from current, but really classy and obviously a Yamaha......even though Red Dave's paintjob is cool
That red & white scheme looks great
