Never mind painting your bike...just get this new one. 2010 BMW S1000RR
The write up on it says it is incredible....plus...the colour is nice.
I read about it in here. http://canadianbiker.com/

Re: What color for the respray
FIIIIIInallly I got to send the R850R in for the cosmetics, after getting rid of the OMB screen and fitting a bikini one, finally finding a throttle body to fit and dumping a gizzillion kilo's exhaust and putting a Tornado pipe.
Thanks for all the suggestions and comments, we are going with base white, orange tank inserts, white side panels, white and black panniers and white and black front mudguard
and
and

orange wheels
Now you just hope it all comes out as your mind's eye see's it. I am pooping

I spent my therapy money an a K1200S
The therapy worked, I got a GS now
A touch of insanity crept back in the shape of an R1200R

Re: What color for the respray
I should have said this sooner, but they're making vinyl wraps now that usually cost about 1/2-3/4 what it does for a paint job. The wraps look like paint but protect the actual paint and peel off with no damage. You should look into them for the next time you want a respray!

Thanks for the tip, now I think on it I know a guy that does the clear film to protect the "fly zones"
