2011 Yamaha R6 Paint Scheme: SICK!

[AMD_IS_THE_BEST]

Call me when you see a Ferrari or Lamborghini or Ducati having any sort of graphics to break up the factory one color. Occasional racing stripes and model insignia excluding.

I get why the Japanese manufacturers are going with this, but there are better ways to set yourself apart plus the non riders that think that those graphics are cool are the same people who already want the bike as a status symbol, hence no point in them.

Manufacturers have been breaking up colors successfully by contrasting colors of wheels, frame and fairings.

Jap bikes have had graphics as far back as I can remember. Maybe not tribal or graphiti, but there are still graphics on the bikes. Even factory Ducati has graphics:

Solid color bikes look off to me.

All of what is in this thread is 100% opinion and just because someone may have graphiti/tribal grapics on their bike does not mean anything as far as riders ability or performance. I’m sure Josh Hayes has a brand new one of these and no one would question his graphics.

FWIW, I just liked the color scheme of this bike and didn’t even really notice the “tribal” decals until it was mentioned.
