Still tossing paint schemes around and debating on whether to in fact do tank badges or maybe do a custom hand painted job myself (I'm quite the artist but have never done such work).

BTW: Your bike looks friggin' awesome as-is. You gotta do what you gotta do, but I would be proud to be seen on a bike like yours!

Ride safe!
