Old Skool Graphics

[Ridgeback]

I'm going for a change of colour on my 6N and would love to go with the speed block graphics from the RD range (I had umpteen 350's and 400's when I was younger)

Trouble is the FZ's tank shape doesn't work with the blocks and yam name

Any suggestions/photoshop wizards? or should I bin the idea and think again?

Saw this on the FZ1 site. You silver engine could be a problem...

Hey Ridgeback,

I wouldn't bin the idea just yet... after all anything is possible if you pur your mind to it! I'd take a look here 600riders.com/forum/bikes-parts-sale, granted it is an FZ1, but the shaping isn't much different... The top few pictures here Yamaha should be inspiration enough!

Cheers fellas :thumbup:
Yeah thats the sort of thing.If I go ahead with it,then the frame/engine is going to have to stay silver,as its my work transport as well as my fun bike
And I can't afford to have it off the road for too long.Saying that,I don't want a clone of an RD (RZ in the States?) so I'll have to see if I can colour it in in a picture to get a rough idea.
I'm looking along the lines of White with the black speed blocks.

I have thought about this myself numerous times. I have a 2004 Fazer with the fairing and the silver frame engine etc and was thinking of the yellow so I was worried it might look a bit insipid.

It looks good on the XJR1300...

i've always thought the fz6 could be more with the right graphics. Good luck. I may do a racing strip myself, like the ducati monster. BTW nice naked.
