Saying hi. First pics

jnumata · June 6th, 2009, 10:51 AM

I just picked the bike up a couple weekends ago. I'm super busy right now so I'm not scheduled to take the MSF course until late June. In the meantime I've started a couple projects - CW fender eliminator and seat cowl. The FMF pipe came with it from the dealer. Sounds great! I just removed the white stripes today and I'm thinking about putting the lower monster energy claw on the black portion. Too bad I couldn't capture the green on the bike very well with these photos. Any thoughts? Any opinions on adding the monster claw?

Congrats on the new bike and welcome.

Alex · June 6th, 2009, 10:53 AM

jnumata! Glad to have you aboard...

Elfling · June 6th, 2009, 11:07 AM

Holas!

I'm not a huge fan of the Monster stickers, but its totally a personal thing

It's your bike, rock it how you want.

jnumata · June 6th, 2009, 11:10 AM

Yeah, I can't decide. I already ordered them so I might as well give them a shot. If I don't like 'em, I'll just take them back off. I always like to keep my vehicles clean, but I do like those monster stickers.

Welcome mate. I don't think Monster sponsors Kawasaki no more, think they're with Yamaha. But go for it!

Thanks. I've seen your bike around when I've searched checking out the FMF pipe. The pipe was actually already installed by the dealer. I went for it and was able to get a good deal on it without paying for any installation costs. I figure it must be covered somewhat under warranty too. Sounds great!

TnNinjaGirl · June 8th, 2009, 04:55 PM

Very nice!! Your bike looks so much better without that white SE stripe. (Let the war begin)

Thanks! I like it too. Trust me, it took me some serious thought before I pulled that white stripe off though.

Nemy · June 9th, 2009, 09:48 PM

nice looking ride! and welcome to the forums! The monster decals will definitely look good. I think one for each of the black sides and a smaller one on the seat cowl like the zx6r would look the best. Just get those pictures up when you do!
