I like the one with no white stickers. I think it catches the eye better.

At first glance I like the look of the white stickers. The stickers make the bike stand out. However, the more I look at the bike the more I like the cleaner look of no stickers. I vote NO stickers.

I've just always liked the line that the white creates. *shrug* Without the white, I'd rather have straight Kawi-green.

When I bought my SE they also had this green one there.. with a white bottom. Green is a lil too loud for me though.

Just throwing out ideas on the white. Might be able to do a simple graphic like that in vinyl.
If I had to chose stickers or not. Probably with stickers. I don't know why. I think mine might look better with no stickers but I'm too chicken to pull them off or put other stickers on. Just gonna leave it.

I have the 2009 SE too. I like it "as is", with the stickers.

Much cleaner without the white. It kinda seems like Kawi didnt think about the design details too much and just threw on stickers between some of the creases

I like the '09 without the vinyl.
I think most of the '10 graphics on the green make it look like another '80s tossoff design. No offense Neil, just not my cup 'o tea.

Why, O why does Kawi keep putting crappy stickers on otherwise perfect paint the more the model matures?
I voted NO WHITE stickers.

I have the 2009 SE and i vote FOR stickers. i think the bike looks incomplete without the stickers. unless you were to take it off and add some of your own decals.

i think the stickers on the red 2010 ninja takes away from the clean lines, the stickers should complement those lines. check it out (sorry about the resolution, i took it with my blackberry)... |

I took my stickers off and never looked back. The stock ones were not very good to begin with and looked like they would curl up eventually. I replaced them with 3M black reflective, so it still looks clean, but reflects light at night for added visibility.

i am, but just the basic stuff right now. like getting rid of the fender, maybe a hugger, hid lights, stuff like that. basically whatever my wallet will allow. The hid is one i really want to do just for safety as well, just looks a little daunting.

If you decide to go the severe DIY chop and still need LP lights, they make LED lights in license plate bolts. I'd show a pic of mine, but I kinda broke them the other day doing something I shouldn't have.

I like the white from the vinyls, but I think you should take off the white factory vinyls and get the race vinyl kit from kevins_garage in white. It looks different than factory and continues the white line through the tail instead of cutting it off at the bottom of the tank
