This started out as a stock 04 R6 with some slight body work scratches and scrapes. The owner had already gotten the wheels powder coated in the candy red that he wanted the bike painted. So my job was to match the color that was already on the wheels. As you can see, the front and back wheels are not the same shade so I used the front as the guide and worked on the color until I had it nailed. The Yamaha strobe stripe kit is from Tapeworks. I had them make a kit specific to the R6 from a generic stripe kit they had. I can do this scheme on any base color… it would look great on a yellow bike or on a Yamaha blue bike.
