When I had the bike repainted Candy Apple Blue in the 1980's, I had the gold stripes follow the original KZ650C2 stripes.
The space between the stripes was filled in with gold.

I bought a little Cafe fairing.
I left it with the painter and he will paint it the same blue.

Got a smaller front fender from:
