How much am I saving?
I'd have to second that!!(CBXRider @ Sep. 28 2006,23:31) How much am I saving?
Black954, Thank you, I'll see how the fender looks before the final decision. In regard to the Black Frame, instead of switchin we could strip down your bike and utilize the factory recommended YAP Paint from Color Rite to make it the Matte Shadow Black Metalic, (see link below)(black954 @ Sep. 28 2006,19:11) bike looks great. You should hold off on painting the front fender until you install the black wheels. It might look better with the black wheels and carbon fender. You should trade me frames and swingarms, the silver would look better on your bike. I would do all the work myself for free!
You are very Welcome. Send or post pics when complete, I think I mentioned it before but That Bike of yours is the best of both worlds: Absolutely Beautiful and Built for Performance!!! you did an Awesome job on it, and I still love the look of the Euro Race Carbon Fiber Front fender on yours, thats why I HAD to Have one too!!!(black954 @ Sep. 29 2006,08:03) Director, you are a Godsend! I've been looking for OEM paints and had no luck. Best I could do is take a painted part to the supplier and have them scan it and give me something close. I am stripping down my busa this winter and it will get a black frame and swingarm. I also wanted to paint my front fairing and gas tank with OEM black and now it will.Thanks again for the info. I'm in Chicago but thanks for the offer to help.
I've had my white seats for a good 6 months and no color fading. I wipe them down(soon2be @ Sep. 29 2006,17:36) Nice color choice for the seats. Will you be able to keep the seats clean? Bike looks awesome.
Thankfully, when on the road, Hayabusas move faster than UV Rays!! (thats has to be pretty FAST!), and when not moving It is always Garaged and covered, so far no color transfer from Black Jeans or Leathers, hopefully with proper care they will survive the life of the Bike.(BiG-T @ Sep. 29 2006,15)I've had my white seats for a good 6 months and no color fading.

Definitely! I have a set of the Carbon Fiber Sliders with Gold or Polished Aluminum Caps, need to make a final decision soon.(nitrousjunkie @ Sep. 29 2006,16:51) Looks good,you'll want some sliders,that plastic is expensive!
