06 Black. They just look mean. Especially with a full Akra system, fender eliminator, light smoked Zero Gravity screen and bar end mirrors...

I was , thanks 'devil . The "Basic Racer" , and the Holy Grail "Complete Racer" for a paltry $104,999US . That's only $618 per HP .

So lets compare the 03 to an 05 side by side......Hard for me to compare. They look so different....almost like 2 completely different bikes.

The HRC White was meant to be a blank slate for the owner to do whatever he wishes , like sponsor stickers or more likely , team colors . Just like my all-white , HRC constructed NSR50R !

ok you get an "F" on this post. you can't put up some shit like that without a picture.

and you know I don't think there is a person on this site that wouldn't want a basic racer sitting in the garage. and even though it's a blank slate I would be tempted to leave it as is. unless I was truly racing in a series. then I would store the stock white raceglass and buy some others to go fvck up.

^ I plan on it since I finally bought a non-hamster powered PC . I posted a couple years ago about purchasing a new 06 Dream 50R and NSR50R . They're sitting beside me in my den as I type . Frankly , the $9999 Basic isn't a big deal ; the Complete wakes me up in a cold sweat after I drop a spanner on its tank , in my dreams .

The euro sp1 with red paint and bare frame looks best to me. But since I'll never have that, I'll settle with the '03. Looks better than everything but the '05

2003 for me! I love how the windscreen follows the lines of the duct in front. I blacked mine out to give it a nice clean line.

Personal preference, I was looking for an '05/'06 and searched out an '06 because of the tank decal
I also prefer my Banzai Canisters to the uber long low cans.
