Kinda mixing flame styles, IMHO. Looked sweet when it was just gold/yellow tipped green flames, without the pinstripe. Red pinstripe on solid green - no tips - would be smokin'.

yup , there are so many ways to do it ...When I ran the original tape for the flames I wasnt real concerned about perfect edges Because I planned on a pinstripe. After I saw what the green looked by itself, I wished I had made finished edges, I may have just left it that way ......But I was committed to this style so I went with it ....

I'm usually not a fan of flames, but that is some great looking flames you got going on. Good job. I like the red pin stripe by the way.

I like the green, it would look good on my bike. Of course the color choice for mine changes damn near every time I look at a bike.
