Deal is done and Kermit was officially traded in. I have to say while the green is cool the white is stunning. Seems a little more classy and grown up and sexy as hell. They moved all my stuff over as well as did the white rim tape for me. All I need to do now is figure out an LED setup and powerlet. The Black series Two Brothers exhaust looks perfect against the white. The paint is beautiful in the sun as well tons of metal flake in it.

Anyway enough blathering here are some pics:

Here she is just finished up sans wheel tape

All cleaned up, rims done

My ugly mug LOL

White is cool but the golden blazed green is still cooler - more kawa colour. And just my own opinion via photos.
Would like to see white in live...

Looking good !!! The white/black combo makes the bike look smaller in size. Pipes are perfect. Is the bike lowered ??

Nice congrats.... Looks like white walls.
Have you tried to see what the ABS is like?

Looks good. The rim pinstripe really pops, too.

Sharp.

Thanks guys. To answer some of the questions:

No the bike isn't lowered looks like it though which is cool!

Plasti dipped emblems look sick! How did you do that?

ABS kicks ass. I did try it! Works fantastic and stops hard. You can feel a little pulse when it kicks in but hauls down, no wiggle, perfectly straight and upright!

Trade they gave me $9k book said $8825. I paid $12,500 for it and it had 7000 miles on it at almost a year old. Depreciation these days sucks on everything. But they were very fair considering it was wrecked!

Congratulations!

Lookin REALLY good there Phantom....pics in the Sun...yes.....way cool paint!

Yea the more I look at it the more I like it better than the green. The Green is cool don't get me wrong, but I'm really digging the white a lot.

The white is very unique looking...the black parts really set the 'theme' of the style off really well..good one....very nice choice!I think Kawasaki's gonna sell a lot of these white ones... Plus it allows a wider range of custom paint schemes on there...if you decide to go that way.

Way to get back on the saddle Phantom. The white is a good look. Brock's has a white and black logo plate for his CT-Dual if you decide to go that way

I saw the white at the dealer today and it looks good the paint looks pearl but maybe its the metal flake. That one had no abs but they had a black one with abs and it was also a good looking bike. My opinion of course but the green would not interest me too loud and plastic looking. The white looked a little understated a good thing as who wants someone to remember exactly what you looked like as they report a maniac on a bike, just because they don't understand you live on a different plane.

Are those badges on the new bike or stickers?

Very cool mate. I love white with black as the contrasting colour. Truth be told, I loved the colour (Flame Orange) on my last bike and I found a pic of a "Custom" ZX14R adorned in the same colour. Thinking of doing a custom paint job..........although the white looks AWWWWWWESOME. :):):)
We get "Midnight Blue" and "Black " with green "foreman" grills in OZ for 2013. :/

Thanks!

Black, completely stock, little over 2k miles, first oil was done by dealer at 600, then the next at 1k by me and just before it got really cold by me (around December)
Low sided at low speed, did not flip or hit anything just slid to a stop,, nothing broke just scraped,,thank god for freshly paved road on my block.. Rode it in to dealer to inspect, as per dealer report just cosmetic damage
Have all plastics on hand, just waiting for the temps to rise to comfortably install, once the new plastic is installed its basically in new condition no other flaws
And clear title on hand

Sorry phantom didnt mean to hijack

The white has been growing on me..... If I didn't put so much into my bike I would have bought the 13. Congrats, hope you enjoy it!

Snuffy... You getting yours?

Ha! The Thought Has Crossed My Mind!!! I like the Red for 13' but I just added all sorts of goodies to My Green Hornet so I Think I will Hold off on the urge!

Hey Seno I just happened to stumble upon your Dealer about a Month ago and chatted with Zues for a few nice Guy! I let him know how well you speak about his dealership on the forum.

Hey Phantom the white tape on the rim looks really Good.

Snuffy

Thanks guys! I'm still trying to burn the first tank of gas out of it! Got about 150 miles on her. Trying to come up with a clever name, the green was easy (Kermit), the white however... It's been a bit rainy and now it's a bit cold (yeah I'm a wuss) so I haven't had it out in a few days. I'm jones'n though. She's just sitting there all pretty on her rear stand looking all sullen waiting for me to ride her.
