I am just trying to make my bike a little more "mine." I have the fast black color and want to try to put some blue highlights or tints to it more. So I'm just curious if anybody has anymore ideas than i have already done. If so what do you suggest and from where?

Already got Blue L.E.D.s, blue tint grips, blue tank pad, and blue tire valve LEDs.
 
What would look cool as hell if you can afford it is airbrushed on blue metallic in clear ghost flames.

I think it'd be cool if the flames were really subtle, going from black at the front of the tank, to blue, to white tips. But really faint, really subtle -- almost such that you'd have to see it in the sun to make them pop.

You could also do a saddle from a place like Top Saddlery and get blue accents/stitching. But again, I'd do it in a minimalist sort of way.
 
I think reflective blue rim stripes would go well with your scheme, also a blue oil cap, blue fuel tank cap with the stock silver ring, blue back light for the instrument cluster, blue Purolator oil filter, and maybe a custom seat with blue stitching.
 
Black out your windscreen from the back with a negative of the image, then rig up some blue led's behind the screen to have it show the design distinctly. It looks awesome when done right.
 
For about $15 you can buy a wheel striping kit in any color you want. I got blue. It comes with enough to do both sides of both wheels and an applicator that uses the contour of the inside lip of the rim to put the striping on easily and perfectly the first time. The kit I purchased had all of the striping in one roll not two large half moons. I'm not sure of the name brand of the kit I purchased but your local dealer should know. If not call Clarion Cycles in Shippenville, PA and talk to John. They have a website to. Tell him you are looking for the same wheel stripe kit Brad Siegel recently bought for his 2007 FZ6.

that would be cool as hell but is also ironic b/c i would probably have to spend eternity in hell just to pay for it (selling the soul may not be worth the bike...... maybe)
