NextGen Motorsports’ BMW S1000RR will this year have a striking stand out livery on the bike when it hits the circuits throughout the 2017 Yamaha Motor Finance Australian Superbike Championship.
The #56 machine, which will be piloted by Troy Guenther, the winner of the 2017 RK Chains Samurai Trophy, was done up by the crew at SignPro, a well-respected motorcycle signage and graphics company within the motorcycle racing paddock.
Greg Stevens, the managing director of SignPro and in charge of this year’s PR for the NexGen Motorsports team told AMCN this afternoon that there were six designs in total to get to this final livery.
“Like all new livery’s you have to make sure everything fits according to plan and of course making sure sponsors are happy with their particular logos on the bike,” explained Stevens, who regards this livery as one of the best he has done thus far.
The main thing to point out on the new colour scheme is the process blue, which was inspired by the BMW corporate branding.
Guenther, the reigning Australian Supersport champion said; “The 2017 NextGen Motorsports BMW’s look amazing.
The blue and black colour combo really does grab your attention and with the decals provided by Sign Pro the bikes really do have a nice finish. I am very excited to be able to represent both the teams and my personal sponsors with such a striking and professional look.”
