why the fuck would you want to cover a cool bike in shit?

If youre going to do anything, get a tastefull, and relevant decal custom designed for it, why would you want to cover it stickers FFS?

a tidy 'Suzuki' across the bottom in white, and then something relevant to the bike on the mids would be sweet. keeping it simple and clean will keep it looking awesome, get too busy with it, and it looks like an old bar fridge covered in retarded children's drawings...

oh, gee, I dunno, maybe the fact that this person has basically posted on the internet in an attempt to source alternative opinions? yeah, yeah, maybe that. got something to contribute, or just being a troll?

He has a cool bike. I told him what I would be doing if it was mine. Id stick to one or two basic, clean smooth vinyls, I wouldnt be covering in in stupid stickers like those fucktards do on the doors of their riced up peices of shit cars.
Its fine if you are a racer, and the decals are all of your sponsors, but otherwise, it looks gay as fuck, and ruins the lines of an otherwise nice vehicle

whatever. Its kb. you get opinions whether you wanted them or not.
at least Ive contributed to a thread with something that isnt brainless bribble, unlike the shit youve posted here.
But dont worry, another couple thousand useless posts, and youll hit the 10k, then you can pretend to be a big boy.

If you have one base colour and nothing else, then something like that would look pretty cool and original and doesnt look like a crock of shit, I think TT thought you were gonna be one of those tards who put manufacture stickers everywhere.. like me ;) you should see my helmet haha

fair enough, that could look really good.
Of course, you could aim to NOT scratch it, are the crash bungs available for those things? surely there are. . .

Do you know anyone with photoshop who can do some mock ups for you?

ive got a guy doing some design at the moment fully custom i was just curious if there was more people out there. hes gonna put together a couple of ideas and then flick the pics through to me. hes pretty cool. takes photos of your bike then goes ahead and computers that shit up. So ill just have to wait and see what he comes up. Uses quality 7 year vinyl aswell.

good stuff. Ive found custom vinyls surprisingly cheap, so its a cheap way to change your bike up every time it gets a little boring. I had a friend last year who had a vinyl cutter, and he made a bunch of them for people, did some great work, then he moved away.

Oh, if youre doing this to save agaunst scratches etc, Id also suggest getting some clear stuff, and putting it around the back of the tank, where your legs touch sometimes. That area can be a high wear area, and over a year or more you can noticeably wear the paint. only costs about $5 for enough to cover the relevant area

He's based in Welly, but if you want some small ones to stick on yourself, he could sort you out.

Dont know anyone in Auckland, but as for the clear stuff, anywhere that does signwriting should be able to do it. If you go in and plead poverty, they might even give you a couple offcuts you can cut and fit yourself for $5
