XTX Special Paint Job
 
Ok, I was going to sell my spare XTX panels but have decided to use them for a special on off paint scheme. I have not decided as yet what that is but for insipration I am looking at the photoshop ideas Badga did a few years back.

As I already have the panels the only thing this is going to cost is a little paint and effort.

Options below are (but if you have an idea then please post):

Military - stencilled with Yamaha and XTX

Urban Camo

Normal Camo

Stealth Matt Black with Yamaha & XTX stencils only

Voted other - I like the big tuning fork logo on the rad shroud but with a 50th anniversary Yamaha scheme, the yellow/black squares thing :)

but like the idea of fluoro camo kind of opposites together
or what about getting the panels wrapped in a paul smith logo stripe?

I like the military one at the top � just don't go planning any road trips to Vietnam or Libya :-)

Stealth with little or no decals :nod: I was going to go matt when I first got the bike but never got round to it. Stabak had a fine example with an ace of clubs etched on.

If you go camo why not try using a vinyl wrap, probably works out cheaper and easy to remove.

You like Fiat and Italian cars right? How about the....

Italian Job?

Cheers for the responses so far. I like the idea of the matt black and possibly with some sort of Yamaha speed block design, simple and subtle. Nothing too fussy.

Keep the ideas coming as I am in no rush to get it finished as I plan to do this over the winter whilst the bike is off the road in the thick of winter (not as if it really matters as the panels are spares and it only takes a couple of hours to swap). Gotta keep riding it now whilst the road salt is not around!
