That artwork is awesome.

I maybe would have had the head of the bird facing the front of the bike, but that's just me.

Again, it looks great !!

How do you get the image on the vinyl? I like the red plug wires and the red rag on the forks. I have been been putting some lipstick on my black Hog also.
