I hear you about money. I'm still buying stuff. I've picked up a PCIII and a Ohlins rear shock in the last couple pay checks. We've got the Winter Holidays here in the States which are expensive (get togethers, food, drinks, gifts, activities). So I've eased up on my spending on the bike just a bit. I'm planning on bring it out of storage and bringing it to my residence's garage so that I could work on that R1 tail. Should be fun.
And I've decided on a color but hadn't announced it here. I'm going white. I wanted a color I couldn't find on any street-going FZ6 and I also wanted a color that a typical privateer bike builder might use. I'm not a fan of yellow or green, purple is too girly for my taste, blue is my favorite color and red & black are also good, but they're taken by other Yami bikes. So I settled on white. Clean, makes for nice palette for decals. I currently only have a couple ideas for decals. I want to put a black retroreflective 28's on the front of the bike and maybe on the tail. I also want to put a set of "Yamaha Race Stripes", starting at the lower fairing running thru to the tank. Kind of how the 06 50th anniversary bikes had them.
Oh and that FAZER Cup tail looks real clean. I wish they had a rear shot with some aftermarket pipes. It would give a better indication of how it might look on a typical track bike.
