Nice scoot man
I had a 95 in the same color when I was 19, I wish I would've held on to it
i found a 98 for sale in this area for 800 bucks, but I just picked up a 96 elite so I can't afford it right now.

So paint it...

Prep it really good, use sooth bright pads, then paint it with bumper paint.
Bumper paint does not have a gloss to it, so it will look like it should. And as long as you prep right, It wont come off just from your feet rubbing across it.

Thanks for the photochop, but again
I personally dont mind the color at all, and could care less what other haters think
What did I do? I rode it..
Jog's are very fast stock, only actual mods now are the CF reeds and intake manifold but those are minor. Gained about +3mph with the bigger rear tire, but only with help of a hill, otherwise still 45mph cruise.
Just installed new S1 tire upfront too, got it as a deal from the shop. pics of that soon maybee

Looks red over here. Think you could maybe photochop it like a dark gray, almost gunmetal color? That would be sweet yo

Not bad at all man. Howbout my all time favorite, black on black!

That's been my fav color scheme but never had a bike/car to do that with.
Flat black inners and gloss outer like it is now, w/ stickers removed. Got some plans to clean up that rear too, cf turns on the way. Oh man really lookin forward to this one! lol thanks Dac!
