Thinking ahead to those long dark nights over winter

I'm hoping to have the NC24 MOTd before the end of next week but I'm throwing a few ideas around in my head for the winter strip down. I don't want standard, I want something individual, one off.

My first thought was all black fairings with the frame yellow and a black pinstripe where the two grooves are down each side. Fork lowers would be black and mudguard yellow. Might look a bit odd with white wheels and polished rims though?

My second thought was black as above but with white instead of yellow to match the wheels (my race bike is black and white).

My third thought was R1 blue fairings with a white frame.


I'll deal with graphics after I've decided which colour cheme to go for but I've not got the lower front panels so there's not much to paint.


What do you guys reckon? Anyone fancy a bit of Photoshopping?

Not sure about the coloured frame option - unless of course it's black (well black is a shade 8-), not a colour).

Keep the frame either silver, black or grey. You may find that you change your mind and regret it later. Much easier to change the bodywork colour...
