I dont know if this has been done before or not. I am interested to know what everyone's opinion is of the different colors used on the 14's. I have never been a big fan of two-tone paint schemes, but the 2009, burnt orange/black looks good on the internet, not sure it looks great in person.

What are the most popular colors?

I have that very one. I originally bought an '09 candy lime green only because I couldn't find the one I have now. LOVIN' it! Definitely my fav.

Let me be the first to suggest that black is where its at! Gloss black, flat black, or some combination . . . just as long as its black.

I originally wanted black, but thought about the whack jobs that, bad enough as it is, don't see you in the day time, but you're double worse off riding at night with a "camouflaged" bike. Dem dar UFO ain't it cuz... lolz

Love the feedback, maybe the site mod could start a poll?

Ethan14, are you referring to the new red color on the 2010?

Everybody knows that the Atomic Silver is the best..... and the fastest. They just don't want to admit they screwed up and bought some other crappy color.

Red, for sure. Black is a no brainer. I got one in black and it gets too dirty too quickly. Red stays cleaner during a ride. 2010 red looks awesome.

Black. I also like black on black with black on the sides.
I've seen the orange and it looks pretty good. Don't know why but my first thought was Kaw' thinking about the 'Busa.
I like the silver too but the black is best. Kawasaki green is nice too.
Black it is.

Hey Guys

I must say that I Love my Color 07 Candy Plasma Blue and the color just catches the eye like a spark

But I must say I Love this bike in the Kawi Green color a few guys on here have that custom color
and i must say I think it is Hot in that color.

I checked out the 2010 Crimson Red bike at the NYC motorcycle show and that is another awesome looking color in person...I might even trade up in 2011 when the red is a leftover to save a few bucks.

No Matter what color you guys have or choose the Bike itself is awesome in any color its just a matter of what color catches your eye.

I have the '07 DIABLO BLACK with black wheels with a little kawi green in the seat and little red and yellow from the akrapovic pipe. Black is the right way to go but if I could do it again the '08 Midnight Saphire Blue is hot!
