Are you looking for a replica? Are you inspired by any particular rider? Do you dislike a particular colour scheme?

I can tell you a paint job that no-one has yet done, but is perfect for that shape of bodywork! (Although someone I know was 1/2 way there once!)

Variation on a theme! Nastro Azzuro test colours... well trick, and so far undone!

The shape of your bodywork is correct for it too. Wink

Luke F painted a TSR250 fairing and modified NSR500 seat (yes, a real one!) in the dayglo yellow/green ready to sticker up, but never got round to it. I had the fairing and seat for a while and was going to use it on mine, but as ever, plans change!

The problem was he used a Porsche paint that was guaranteed colour-fast for something like 10,000,000,000 years and cost about £1000 a litre! I didn't want to be the one to scratch it! Confused

That'll be Rat's bike! The son of Matt@TYGA's old SS400 adversary, Christmas! Lovely isn't it?!

Hopefully I'll be able to see him practising in Thailand some time and take some good photos of it. Very Happy

Yep Andy's correct I did do the Rossi practice scheme in yellow.

But to all those wishing to try beware, I had it done at just over cost on materials (£700)by some one i knew at a porsche shop. The varnish top coat was over £150 a litre and took two weeks to arrive cause it was made for the job, never again. The fairing was 90% completed sticker wise just wings missing good old Tyga Paul made them up back in the day when it was what the did. I did dry fit it to a bike years ago and in the day light nothing looked as good,

Just need another bike to mount it all on now as its all in boxes in my garage loft Embarassed Embarassed
