ZX-SR2 Concept (Mass Effect themed 250R)

Sykes92 · October 27th, 2014, 04:53 PM

I didn't really think this belonged in Farkles because nothing physical has been done to my bike yet, but I threw together a rough draft of a paint/decal job.
Front:

Side:

SSV-Normandy SR2 (for comparison):

She's called the ZX-SR2, a play on the SSV Normandy's and Kawasaki's models. The theme is inspired by the Mass Effect video game series (specifically Mass Effect 2). In the 2nd game, the ship is rebuilt/owned by a organization called Cerberus. Cerberus themes everything (soldiers, weapons, vehicles) with White/Black/Amber and sometimes red.

I'm still toying with it and may make adjustments/add things in the weeks to come.

Right now she's stock blue, so I'll probably just get her repainted white and have everything else be a decal sticker. I haven't totally decided though since stenciling/painting the details is an option too. And I'll be nabbing a rear cowl and a sportisi face cover (which I'll try modifying to get rid of the ugly "nose" it has). And having been going back forth between either Amber/Orange rim tape and Amber/Orange RHOK Molten Wheel Lights.

But, I'm pretty excited since this is what I chose to do instead of buying a 600cc bike. I didn't really have a need for a more expensive and more powerful bike. So I decided to make my little 250 as badass (or nerdy) as she can be. I'll probably start up a build thread in Farkles once work has started on her, which probably won't happen for a couple of months. But yeah, thought I'd share for fun!

Next step is finding a cripple to pilot it.

Looks pretty sweet!

I like it, it'll look real sick when it's done

especially that front end, converting to split headlights definitely adds a lot to the bike aesthetically

Hopefully not me! hahah. But that gives me a new idea/life goal: Build ZX-SR2 and get a picture of Seth Green on it.

Thanks! The front is just a plastic cover for the normal 250R headlight. I actually wish I had the resources to do a real split-headlights mod. Or if I could get my hands on the head of a Ninja 250SL/RR Mono and find a way to fit it onto mine haha.

I knew what it was, sorry for the bad wording in expressing what it is. Your way is the practical way, to do a real split headlight mod is an enormous amount of work.

Well done sir, nice and clean looking, and amazing

Oh my bad

. But yeah a full conversion is more time and money than I think is worth haha. I'd rather spent that time/money on maintenance.

Thank you! Hopefully it will be the same in reality
