I find googling pictures of bikes the easiest way of finding them!!

Its all about being clever with the way you do the search - such as Pentax VFR or VFR pentax or NC30 pentax or if you know a year and which race series it was in try that as a search.

Time to hide now after an influx of bike pics being posted up!!!

http://www.yahoo.co.jp is always my first port of call when searching for those type of images. You'll find alot of pics on there which don't seem to show up on western search engines.

I did the google thing but I'll try being a bit more creative in my search requests.

I'll give the japanese searches a go as well.

Yahoo Japan was helpful in what a retail colour scheme would look like.

I'm now thinking of doing this with a suzuka style fairing and black number boards.

I'm thinking about doing a Terra rep:-

I've always been a fan of the scheme on NSR's but I haven't seen anyone do a V4 rep. Has anyone (Yakama) seen any different colour variations of the scheme on an RVF? I've seen the red/white and silver/white schemes but only on works NSR's.
