A matter of taste either way, you like em and think they would look good on yer bike, do it, if no, or if you hate em, then don't. Pretty simple I think...

Actually it is just a Les Paul Standard in a color called Gecko Burst, which wasn't made for very long, 2 years I think, 05-06 if I am not mistaken.

The ties on my leather grip wraps act as 'tassels'. I think they kick serious azz and make me more of a real biker, not like all the posers without them. =P
