OK Travis, just about to drop my tins off for paint, and I need something better for the front fairing. I like the flaming dice on the green cloth less the Martini glass, so what else do you have hiding in your image vault for gambling images. I will cary the chips down onto the lower bags from the side covers, but i've ditched the Welcome to Las Vegas image, and need something else that will flow with the test "High Stakes".

Open to suggestions?

Whether or not you like the slots, trip sevens screams LV also.

Great job so far, classier than other LV themed bikes I've seen.

this painting is a great collage of lasvegas and would look great with the rest of your paint job.

You don't have a craps layout, yet. How about something like this?

Or how about something like this. Nothing says high stakes better than a $1000 bill, with the dice burning a hole through it.

Of course I would loose the olives...

Or a $100, like on this poker set.

Here is a clearer image. I think it would look great on a fairing. Again, I would loose the olives. Michael Godard has some outstanding work, IMO.

Or maybe a large poker chip? You could put a bill behind it?

The last one might look cool. You can run a five card royal spade flush on the bottom, with a skull of some type. 'Cause if you gamble, it will be the death of you, eventually. LOL
