Default Help me pick a color

So I have decided to give up on Sportbikes - I no longer (and haven't for a while) been riding them.

I do however have a garage full of them and I have decided to start selling them. I actually sold 3 already.

The next one up for sale is a 2006 Kawasaki ZX-10r

I laid it down about 3 1/2 years ago and it has been parked ever since. I think the bike has less then 1,000 miles on it.

Anyway it needs all new plastic.

I just want to put the plastic on it that has the most APPEAL so I can sell it for the most money.

Which of the following kits do you think looks the best?

Just for reference this is the same bike except mine has custom exhaust and Sato Rear sets on it.

Come on guys - just an opinion on what color scheme looks the best to you.

I am looking to order on Monday.

I do not like any of them, I prefer my bikes in all black but that is not what sells the best.

Its a Kawasaki, it needs to be green .

How many did you have, sounds like you had quite the collection.

I myself hope I can someday get a Ducati 1098.

i know most of yall think ninja = has to be green.. but i vote orange, might look pretty sick..

btw, how much you selling it for??

you say you're gonna be gettin rid of a bunch of sport bikes.. just out of curiosity any of them on the lower end of price ranges?? I may be interested if it's within striking distance of my bank account's balance.. I don't even have a motorcycle license but I don't need a license, I just need a motorcycle, a helmet, and my idiot brain.. ooo maybe even a tank of nos..

Well the other 3 all have NO2 installed on them.
1 is an 04 ZX-10r stoked and bored to 1044cc with a wet nitrous system on it
another is a ZX-14r with a fully built motor still in the crate, airshifter, 10" extended, fiberglass seat, progressive NO2 system
Neither one is going to be cheap.
I was keeping them cause of - well whatever that word is for the reason people keep stuff around even though they do not need it anymore.

I actually am selling all my toys right now.

I have a 2004 Nissan 350 with less then 10k miles on it with well over $15k in mods on it. I haven't started that car in over 4 years.

I just sold one of my 4x4 trucks the other day.

My goal is to sell everything I own and live a simpler life.

The zx-14 sounds pretty sick.. I doubt it'd be safe for a 22 yr old obsessed with speed who has driven a motorcycle a grand total of 10 times (maybe) in my life.. nonetheless, sounds pretty sick with the NO2 on it..

simpler life huh.. gonna be a big change..

As for the 350, 15k into it.. goddamn man, you put in some legit money.. I don't think I've ever had 5k to my name in my life.. haha..
