My local dealership got 2 of them in today. I went to go check it out. It looks bad ass but both of them are white. I was really hoping for the blue as I am ready to pull the trigger. White makes it look bigger than it really is!!! Decisions Decisions

Graphically depends on placement, but as a general comment, white brings things to the foreground and accentuates lines, whereas black will do the opposite and visually fall away.

ie, White shoulders on a jersey make the rider look huge, white edges on shrouds make them look bigger etc.

Unfortunately Cycra isn't going to have plastics out until December it sounds like. I've got 5 blue coming in next week! One of which is mine Smile

I actually think the white one looks best.

One of my riding buddies is trying to decide what to get this winter. New Yamaha, Honda, or KTM/Husky. Whatever he gets I’ll be happy because I can spin some laps on it and compare to my KX450F.
