Peeled The Decals Off

[driftboat]

I took mine off. The plan was to have the Kanji painted on in black, but the more I look the better I like it blank.

BMW is that a carbon cover over your tank? If so, where did you get it?

I like to know what is on your tank too , it looks sharp

I like it.

Looks nasty. I guess the mean look isn't good for all those Metro-sexuals...

I put the Suzkui tank guard back on to help protect the bottom cover. Both are real carbon fiber but a different pattern. The bottom guard matches the Ti Force carbon cans. Cost around $200 shipped to the states. I'm happy with it.

Is that the large or small guard?

BTW: Where are your tank decals?

Looks good. I think a subdued kangi on the lower fairing would take away the plain look without being to flashy. Maybe a gray with a metallic finish on the kangi to give it some depth.

Yeah...If I do anything at all it will be that.

Your looks great because you have the two tone so the decals is not missed as the other bike is

i prefer the under stated, detail oriented look myself. sometimes the details get lost in the business of the paint and it's hard to identify the nice parts that have been added on. to each their own.

 

[BusaHANG]

To each his own, but if it was me i would finish the bike off nicely with powder coated pegs, blacked out tailights and turn signals, and a nice set of slip-ons or a full system but in a color black form. JMO, other then that a busa will always be beasty looking to me.

 

[iamjames]

i agree, busas are beastly and that blacked out looks good, but when everything is blacked out, the details hide. polished aluminum or chrome accents the black. and besides, if it were all blacked out, it would look like everyone elses. just like with the decals. individuality is the way we make it our own.

how did u get them off?

Looks absolutely sharp without the decals!

Imho the Kanji simply kills the aesthetic of the motorcycle itself.
