The colours look better in real life as they're slightly metallic, 
I like it so far and that's all that matter really  :)  (well SHMBO hasn't seen it yet....)

Glad you like what I have done. Got the stripes from here (recognise the bike?). He was very helpful in designing and providing the stripes for me. Highly recommended.

Thanks Steve, I found this chap on ebay as well, bit strange in  so far as the ebay shop is completely different and some of the stickerman site options aren't shown on the ebay shop.

I may have missed it, but I've always thought BMW should have brought out a retro look, with black bikes with white pinstripes.  Looks classy, understated and would be a celebration of their old look that lasted so many decades.

Sweeeet.  Very classy, not flashy.  Is this your own work, or did they sell them like this?

That is nicely done, those stripes on a white bike would look ok I think.

Hi Easyrider5258
I use a company called SJ Signs in Oldham.  They do all our van wrapping,  decals, stickers etc,
I went through with him what i wanted, sent him a couple off pictures and dropped the bike off.
