    Cool..

    First is that my R15 is black colour and after some scratches and dents i have strickered full bike to White and Red of R1 style. Later on, Yamaha launched with same colour pattern and there is no difference at all of my bike from stock look colours. Since i spent around 3500 for stickering, i thought lets keep this same design for sometime.

    Now since its been around 2 years of stickering, certain area stickers have been peeled automatically due to rain, dust, wind. Now i need to change colour and time to change aswell.

    I am fond of black always and now its time for black again. But this time, Matt black

    So, Whether i need to go for Matt Black paint job? Or Stickering of Matt black?

    If Paint, Why so and why not stickers?.

    I want it to be beauty than life. Life of 2 years is enough. But richer Look is more important. Expecting your views and suggestions.

    Hey Pradeep my 2 cents about this...
    First of all since you love your bike so much and you want it to look the best nothing can look good than an awesome paint job. Stickers are good but like u said over a period of time they start to peel of and the gloss shine goes of where as on a paint u can use the abundant wax polishes avail in the market and get that gloss back.
    If you like black then think about the R6/R1 black styling with golden colour alloys it will look great in my opinion

    Why paint and not sticker ?? as mentioned above paint can be got back to the best condition but stickers once the gloss goes it goes it cant be got back...

    Hope that helps
    here is a pic of R6 with black n golden combo (again if u notice its a combo of matt finish and gloss finish gives the bike those killer looks )Click image for larger version.

    Exactly paint was in my mind as well, but i dint let that out as needed to know your suggestion. What i had in mind was Matt black and nothing other than that. Onething i heard from Dinesh Sachdev is that matt black paint has disadvantage of paint peeling when bird shits. Needed some light on that as always i cant park my bike in covered parking. 007 need your help too as you use matt black.

    I dint think about golden colour alloys. All i thought was complete blacky. Matt black full paint and engine which are visible with shinning black paints with gloss.
