Default Murdered out with a touch of blue

I have recently started working on my CBR trying to murder it out. I have done a fender eliminator flush mount blinkers removed the big round reflectors and have painted my heat shield, pillions for passenger, and have painted my wheels. Tomorrow I'm planning to put on my wheel striping which is blue and soon hoping to get a blue brake reservoir and a blue chain when the time comes. What do you guys think so far?

Was about to say, making your bike that black is a death wish. :-p

Looks good, I'd like to do the same to mine. Plus that black reflective tape of course. Like to see how it looks when you're done.

"murdered out" - just when "sick" had become normal to this old man.
The internet - the great equalizer.

I think it looks great, and I suppose I would stand out in stark contrast riding it with my high-viz coat on! But I bought my tri-color simply because of the potential conspicuity. Though I would like to try LTR's B&W color scheme.

Bottom line - it's your bike, you should do what you like, and it looks like you are having a good time! I know I am!
