its down to personal taste and how in with the fashion police you want to be

in my eyes a old paintjob wont sell as quickly or as expensively as a current model, my mate wanted me to spray my 748 in the mugello colours from this year. looked good but as it was only a one off race paint who would want to buy it on again. take the honda cbr6rr its been launched in the movistar colours 9 months after movistar quit motogp and now nobody wants it. if you want a race rep that will re sell it would have to be a infostrada scheme.

its difficult to resell and also insure a race rep as no company will cover your paintwork,in the event of a claim they will only pay out for replacement plastics
