I don't know what's worse, this thread or the 4 old guys sitting next to me last week in a restaurant giggling and texting each other at the table.

"Ugliest finish ever"? Ever??? Not even close. It's not what I'd pick for a paint job because I'm a plain and less flashy guy.

That's not paint but it's a Hydrographic "dip" job. They can do anything you can dream up with using a computer and special programs.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder...I don't see anything wrong w/the tank design. Quit being so narrow-minded.

It appears so....

I don't worry when someone says my bike is ugly or if they don't like the way I set my bike up....I think it's funny.
I had a guy ask me yesterday what I was doing with my bike because it kind'a looks like I've just thrown a bunch of mismatched stuff together at the point it's at right now.
I told him that I'm in the middle of a build and that even though it looks a little weird right now, there is a plan behind it all that will become apparent pretty soon.

If someone else thinks it's ugly.....I'm OK with that.

Having said that, I still think that finish with all the skulls is awful and if the guy's gonna get his feelings hurt over someone saying so, he probably should have not done something so "over the top" because there were a few other people looking at it that were just kind's shakin' their heads and waking away.
