99 Black/Silver color?

[bpjones]

I'm looking at picking up another 99 for a project/track bike, and the Busa model history says the bikes should look like this:

But the one bike I have found looks mostly the opposite color scheme...black where the other is grey:

What do you guys say? Seen any 99's like the top one? or are they all like the bottom one?

Here ya go. That top pic of yours looks like an 03 model (stainless midpipe, chrome kanji)

Yep, first pic(top) you posted is a 2003 the second pic(bottom) is the correct 1999 color scheme...

Looks like a '03. But check the VIN

Ha! Looks obvious now! Don't know why I didn't see it?
Thanks for the info!
