Default Quick question about GSXR!

Ive been looking into getting back into a GSXR, but ive been looking for a reasonably priced one with the Blue, Black, and white scheme.

Unfourunately i havent been able to find one of that color, but i have found quite a few other color schemes.

How hard would it be to convert another color scheme over to the blue?

would it be better to just paint it or find fairing, body kits?

Trade plastics with someone, or buy one in a different color scheme, keep looking for the plastics, swap them out when you find them, and sell the ones you don't want. You'll get a good return on your money that way.

Unless you find a deal that is impossible to pass up, keep looking for the color scheme you want. Also, keep in mind that you'll have to swap tanks depending on the two bikes color combonations. Not all the blues are the same.

Don't buy it... solely because it has a swingarm mounted license plate. GAY!


...oh, and fuck buying a damaged bike for just a hair less than what you'd pay for the same model in flawless condition.
