So heres my bike. It has 2800 miles and is an 05. I got it for 2400 and had to rejet it, put the exhaust on it, k&n filter, changed out the back fairings for black, fender eliminator, front windshield, clip-ons, bar grips, painted gas cap dark grey and put on CF gas and tank decals, and had to order 30+ missing screws/bolts.

Wow too much black in my opinion. But, I'm trying to figure out a color scheme myself!

I'm sure it's better than it was. Thanks for posting up!

Looks awesome it is amazing how much better the tail plastics look on the late models. Paint looks perfect.

Don't listen to Mary. She can't even keep her bike on its centerstand!

I like it just the way it is. Nice job! It looks a lot like the 1987 GPX 750R (all black) I almost bought before I bought my GS. It was sweet, but after I thought about it, I knew it was more bike than I really wanted or needed.

Looks nice. I like the chrome flushmount signals on black.

that looks awesome. I'm doing mine all black as well, although mine's an E.

is the wind screen working well? i have the tall zg and get too much head blast.

Hey I can't help dumba$$ people can't see a motorcycle parked appropriately at my house twice.

Guess I'll just have to paint my "Flick" Purple and Pink. Now that is HAWT!

I dunno something seems missing to me. But, hey when did guys take girls's advice anyhow!

Nah...I say get rid of the graphics on the tank and go totally NightRider with it! I think it looks pretty friggin sweet

(I'm just glad I don't have to keep all that black clean

)

i would remove the tank sticker but its covered by a layer clear and am not looking for any trouble. and yes i love the wind screen, it was a VERY tight fit but works really nice. i really wanted the blacked out one but like how this one looks too. thanks for the comments

Looks good, i have the same paintjob but with the tanks all black. The engine coverings in black look good.
