Make mine with the tiny quarter fairing.
Needs a 4-into-4 exhaust system, or at least a 4-into-2. Left side looks bare, and a bit unbalanced. Still, I must have one.

Ask and you shall receive?
The white stripe just does not do it for me. Not sure why.
It is definitely a callback to the less favorable graphic design trends of the 1970s. Still, I do like that bikini fairing. I have one on order for my Bonneville, and when I add the RS to my stable (hopefully in black), I'll likely put a similar one it as well.
I was hoping it would have stripe colors like the green ZRX.

My "Shop" skills are nonexistent but I added some yellow to the green to make it more lime-ish and then added the blue stripe.
I wonder if a sign shop could make a blue tape strip for you? Or maybe a partial wrap?
I went to the dealer the other day and talked to him about securing one. Unfortunately right now, there's still no pricing, delivery dates, or available quantity info being given to the dealers. He feels confident that he'll initially be able to get at least one. Honestly, I'm leaning toward the black one and I'll probably put my own bikini faring onto it. That's assuming, of course, that the black one is even available in the US. There is intentionally so little information at this point. Gotta build that hype, I suppose. I'm just hoping the price for the Z900RS with be comparable to the current Z900 streetfighter. Fingers crossed.
I'll take a green one. No fairing. With a Kerker megaphone.
And gold Eddie Lawson Replica wheels!

Well, just to put a bookend on this thread, I rode a Z900RS on Saturday, and to my own surprise, didn't really care for it.
Without going into too much detail, suffice it to say that it's top heavy, is de-tuned a bit more than I'd have preferred, and has an odd riding position (for me). Somebody explain to me again how the regular Z900 (with a hotter tune, killer looks, and a more ergonomic cockpit) is $8,300, but the RS version is almost 13 Grand. It's a pretty bike, but I decided to pass.
How did it compare to your ZRX? Way under powered compared to it?
Oh my goodness. Was thinking a lime Kawasaki racing green,but I do like this retro look. Put a bikini quarter fairing on mine please.
