I thought about pealing the stickers off but the tank is painted.... I'd have to repaint and I dont really have the heart to start sanding on my baby just yet. I may very well do that when it gets another year or two of age on it. I like the all black look, I would have prefered my 1000rr and cbr racing stickers to have been white and everything else black but it is what it is. I like it this way too. You peeked my interest with that reflective tape. Did you do the design yourself or hire it out? I know companies like trim line do some aftermarket graphics for certain model cars and such, didnt know about bikes..... should be the same I would think, once they have the design, computer could cut all you want from what ever stock you want.

when i say black i mean the fork tubes, pegs and brakets and so on.
the reflective sticker on the 600RR is a overlay of the OEM but in reflective that i make. i also have something similar as a genetic kit that fits anybike.
