The belly fairings will be sprayed to match the purple tail but i need new ones first. Thanks for all the compliments
        Did you clear coat it afterwards? really does look awsome
        of course I did! The only right way to do it! I think I am leaving the tail purple bc I think there will be too much silver if i paint the belly and tail to match it.

                I'd paint the tail, grab handle, lowers, forks, swingarm, sprocket and wheels black...Well wish mine were black but its an 06 and I can't bring myself to paint over new paint...

                  I was thinking about painting the wheels black and the swingarm as well but for some reason I have become partial to the silver wheels and if I decided to do the swingarm it would be a winter time thing so I dont lose riding time. I was also thinking about getting a black Vortex rear sprocket to throw some black in the rear there but I am unsure if I want to go that route yet

                    glad you're still up and riding after your wildlife encounter.
                    my 2 cents is: leave the wheels, but if youre an impulsive cleaner like i am, go black - i just replaced my silver aluminum sprocket (out of neccessity, not style, and its a beeoch to keep clean!)
                    if i may, what kind of seat is that? it looks much better than stock, and i'm having trouble finding a good replacement for mine.
