That's not the actual blue color of the bike, though. It's more of a navy blue.

Well, that one is the best...  Not my fault it's not an '06...   :dunno_white:  Just GS++ twice and you'll be fine... 

The Yellow looks the best. :thumb:

The 04 blue had a white tail, the 05 blue had a blue tail but most of the mid and lower fairing was white, but the yellow was all yellow, they all had the same black front fender. Essentially, they screwed them all ... the 04 tail on the 05 and 05 tail on 04 will ahve worked well, with blue fenders on it and yellow fenders on the yellow. BTW the 89 white front fender looked better than the black front fender on tarzanboy's bike.
Cool.

++  Why did they start doing that anyway?  They used to color match...

Huh...  Oh well...  Good thing I have an '01... or something.
