Graphic Wrap!
So I am looking to put a graphic wrap on my bike since my left fairing has road rash and right has scratches from the previous owner and the fairings are just to expensive for me to buy so it thought this was a pretty cool solution it's for my 250 its the same graphic tho what do you think?

I don't like the idea of being someone else's billboard unless they're paying me for it.

You will still need to fix the fairings because if the scratches are too deep they will show through the vinyl. It needs a good clean surface to adhere to.

I don't get it either. I think it's the emblem thing, like fox racing hoodies. Lots of people just do it cause they like the design.

You can do a beautiful , custom 1 of a kind wrap that would look amazing on your bike - without branding your bike with a corporate logo for an energy drink
And yes. I do realize you can buy these bikes with "monster" edition logos already but that's like buying a hat and leaving the tags on I also have a big problem picking up hobbies and not fitting into the hobbie's image ....

Monster is the big sponsor of a ton of pros in numerous sports, so people want to be like their favorite pros.

Good point. I'd cover the Kawi logos up with something, but that would look even worse.

i am on the lines of no free ads, and yes there are some products I own that inevitably have the logo on it. Most of my clothes are pretty plain or promoting something i am passionate about.

Wraps are cool . Go do it, your bike your theme buddy. Want a Monster wrap, that's cool, or perhaps a pink kitty wrap, whatever tickles your fancy. Your bike, your rules, our opinion. Who's matters most?

The graphic wraps definitely suits your bike color. It looks cool and more like a black knight.

my brother owns and runs a signwriting business here in australia, this is a WIP design we came up with on my 09 ninja 250r, it still needs a few more logo's and the front hugger wraped white with a black pinstripe aslo.
it's not the most elaborate design ever, but i didn't want something that really stuck out like a sore thumb with a bajillion monster or rockstar energy drink logo's plastered all over it. that and i really really hate the kawasaki green :P bike is sporting numerous farkles, ebay clip ons set under the triple tree (reduces maximum lock due to fairing interferrence but gains much more lean angle) and yoshimura reaset brackets. |
