Here are 2 more since I could not get them all in one post. Maybe one of the mods here can help me out and get them all in one post.

I respect that answer. I wanted a bike that is mine and not something someone else has. and I just wanted a little more then the normal wings on it.

Dont get me wrong your definatly onto something,I like the pin striping idea, but you could make the most of it by remove anything that doesn't hold the same lines, take off all wording stickers (honda logos,cbr logos, anything aftermarket,sportech off windshield) try blacking out the bike,solid color tank pad, black swing arm foot controls, hand grips. Basically make it look like the only thing you did was add the yellow striping. remove anything else , oh yeah leave the rim tape

For A good example of what i mean look at the CBRFORUM banner at the top of the page Picture the 2006 Bike of the Year but with your pinstriping idea.

Thank you Nauree. I wish I had my bike to ride right now it is great weather here in florida for riding. I might get it back tonight but more then likely it will be done tommorrow. All the paint is done but right now it is in the shop getting a 6 inch extention put on it along with frame slidders and some new crome parts put on it. when I get it home I will update my pics on here and as well as my gallery.

I pinstriped a few stripes on my bike with yellow too. (a yellow accent looked good on red/black bikes), but I felt it was too much, so I took it off. I too am a "less is more" type of guy...............for some things. It doesn't apply to power, women, money or food.

I like it on yours though for some reason.

It actually looks really good with the yellow pinstrips andthe 6 inch extention it has on it now. I will have pics of it posted on it when I bring it home tommorow.
