with some of the biggest builders and magazines as judges
(imagine if they worked for honda or yamaha etc,, caus if they rolled out of the factory like that, there would be very few bikes on the road,, be a bit like a car that was sticker-bombed from the factory,,,)


it is your love creation though

just don't share too much love

Hey if Yolie had more fairings, I'd let him have a go at her.

She just doesn't have enough to make a good canvas.

yep , straight up and down in the windshield where it contours down, that way you see the light and not the led's themselves so much.

That's awesome! I like seeing unique paint jobs, it gives the bike a lot of individuality. The Autobot one is a bit garish for me personally, but I quite like the Decepticon one.

One day when I've got more space, time and money on my hands I think I'll have a bash at doing a custom paint job on a bike. I'm not too shabby at painting; art was the only decent A-Level grade I came out of school with and I still paint and draw on commission a fair bit.

Did you do the painting yourself? I've never used spraying methods or equipment before so I've got no idea what the outlay cost or techniques are like.
