Pearl Orange is tight (got my vote), followed by Red/blk and graffiti tied.
 
These are so bad that once I saw them I had to hunt down the only good color made, '07 white.:blow:
 
Behold! Ze best 2008 600RR paint scheme

Japanese market only. They didn't have any on display at the Tokyo Motor Show unfortunately. I'll have to look around to see if there are any more press pics of this scheme as well as the Ten Kate scheme for Europe.

I've gotta say I like the Graffiti paintjob but I'd like for us to get a 600RR Moto GP scheme one of these days. Maybe a Dovizioso replica would be nice for 09 :)
 
I like how they (almost) got it right on the graffiti with the subframe, passenger pegs and rearsets. Just not sure why they left a small portion of the two latter items silver, or why they didn't PC the levers either...

P.S. The red is the only color that is better than one of the colors offered last year (i.e. the '07 red). I think the orange looks Gixxer-ish, the silver looks washed out and dated, and the graffiti was a nice try, but seems a bit rice.
My thoughts, exactly. Some day they'll clue in and get it right.
 
Just about everything I have is black or red. Except my REX. GREEN is the only color I'd have on that bike.

I'd have to say Honda did get it right with the Graffiti scheme. If 50% of people think its the best one offered I'd have to say they did a good job. You're not going to please 100% of people 100% of the time but a lot of people like it so they've done their job.
 
man, i saw the new '08 in person and damn it looks sexy!! the only thing that kinda bothers me is that on the rearsets and passenger pegs, it's all black except the actual peg part that can shift position and hardware that holds it together. also, the levers are still silver which also throws off the all black look. other than that, it's definitely sexy
 
The graffitti looks so badass in person. Id love to have that bike. man o man.
