yea flat black is win…just don’t leave any green accents on it. There is a kid with a zx-6 around my school tooling around with a dumpy matte paint job and way too much green still on it. With the job he did on it, he would have looked better if he hadn’t done anything at all IMO. I’ll snap a pic of it If I see it around again 🙂 EDIT: Here is a dumpy cell pic of my bike after i repainted it. (same bike as above) ![http://i55.tinypic.com/11kio78.jpg](http://i55.tinypic.com/11kio78.jpg) ---
