Any Regrets

Was going to get black/grey, but wife said to get orange/blk....she was right

I got a blue one and am happy. When I placed my order my colour choice was "which ever color you can get me right now is the right one"......

Keeping the gold wheels clean is a chore though, Ziggy
 
I've seen both 08s in person and while they are both awesome looking machines, the Blue/Gold did it for me!

Wrote a poem about it, like to hear it here it go:
              Get the 08 Busa
              Go Blue and Gold
              Hurry and Buy it
              Before it's sold.

              Take her out in the sunlight
              And watch her gleam
              She'll have you speechless
              Because her lines are mean.

              And when you twist the throttle
              You will be awed,
              Wearing a permanent smile
              Screaming OH MY GAWD.

Thanks for the poem, I think it's time to flip a toonie and leave it to lady luck. Thanks for everybody's input, I really appreciate it. A great family here.

I liked the orange and black the first time I saw the K8!
I bought an orange and black after I saw it at the dealer!
Still think orange and black is the sweetest of the three!
 
I too was torn. I really wanted the 07 Blue on an 08.  I had an 02 Black and Blue and LOVED the color.  I wasn't crazy about the 08 blue at all. Not to mention the gold wheels.  So I went down to make my purchase.  The dealer had a blue and an orange.  I wasn't crazy about either.  I had them pull the blue one out in the sun to see what it really looked like. (how often do you look at your bike in Arc Sodium lights?)  I liked it better, but on a whimm, I had them pull the orange one out in the sun too.   I had already made up my mind to buy the blue one, but since I didn't LOVE the color, I thought I'd look at my options. (I DON'T like the metalic blackish grey one at all)(if it was solid black I'd like it)  Once the orange hit the sunlight my mind was made up.  I LOVED it. And I didn't think I would.  I have no regrets at all for buying the orange. I always get complements on the color.  Besides, its the fastest color.
 
The orange is so pretty the blue/black and grey/black look the same...dark the orange is bright and happy...like a nice sunny day.

so pretty.

I got the Orange one and the only complaint is that I dont have the 07 Orange / Black 1000 to go with it :-)

I really liked the orange, but I think I made the right choice with the blue. I think the orange will look like a 70s Trans Am did in the 80s. Out of place.
The blue, black and gold will be a timeless design.
