hey reelrazor, you're bike looks exactly like mine did when i got it..except for the front, i have the single headlight..same pearl white paint job over a black frame.

Yeah. It's a look I like. Have I mentioned? I hate graphics. That's a cadillac paint code that I used. subtle but a little deeper than straight white. If I did it again I would opt for a larger flake.

here it's coming up on the rainy season..which sucks..i haven't had the time to work on my bike..i'm planning on using some off time tomorrow to finish it. but i'll only have a month of riding before it starts raining for 2 - 3 months, so no cruises for me for a while.

Haha..here it is coming up on the frozen rain season! Be happy your roads don't freeze!

cadillac paint code? i've been trying to figure out what mine is..i know the cadillac pearl white has a pink tint, and the lexus pearl white has a blue tint, mine has a light blue tint to it. so is yours pearl white or metallic white?

crap man..hawaiian people slow down like crazy when it rains..it's insane, and soooo irritating, i can't imagine how they would react on ice. it rarely rains march - november, but when that season hits people don't know what to do. and so many people don't even know how to drive here either..mix those two together. and the potholes get worse when it rains, then the road consctuction crew come and fill it, then pack it in with their feet. the same hole shows up again a few months later(hmm i wonder why), and the roads are riddled with holes. i don't mind riding in the rain, but potholes, slow drivers, and dumb drivers...ugh. i'm glad i'm actually living in town this year so i don't have to ride 30 minutes here and deal with all of that.

Yeah, Pearl white metallic. It is three step paint and it's a PPG product. I used the finest flake they had-which was finer than the paint code suggested. The code was from a late 90's caddy. I pointed at the car (it was one that someone who worked next door to my shop drove) and the PPG rep wrote down it's details. Mine has a bronze-y tint.

Once I find a 99 - 01 R1 front fairing and fender for a good price, i'm going to paint mine all black and get some red pinstripe for the rims and red stickers and turn mine into the only raven edition FZR, at that point it won't even look like an FZR though. I have thought about staying with the same color just because no one else has that color, or even white for that matter. I think i've seen 1 white sport bike aside from yours. All of the bike cops here have white bikes, but those don't count. haha..hey, speaking of that, this drunk driver thought i was a cop one night about a year ago, as I was about to pass him i realized he was swerving, so I slowed down and got behind him to be safe, he changed lanes over to the shoulder and drove there until his exit. He kept scraping the side of his truck on the freeway concrete things, and the left side of his truck was already scraped up bad with the rubber fender guards and rubber trim hanging off the side, I was just laughing and thinking "serves him right for driving drunk". He thought I was a cop... It was a newer toyota truck too..explain that to your wife.

Yep, rode my ass off today (posting very very late, hey, video games), and no,...really... my ass is still intact so.... but anyway.... yeah, rode both and tomorrow riding MX, might be the last decent day but i hope not, should be kinda cold tomorrow... high of 55 i think... probably more like 45 up there but i don't care. Need to ride, ass is out of shape.

Ride as long as you can stand it, just don't freeze to death, i say.
