In a nutshell, you need to host (upload them) on a site like photobucket, then you can link to the pictures.

fixed.


I just put (img) tags around it.

If you want to see what I did, pretend you're going to reply by pressing "quote", and you'll see the raw bb code.

(I wish I had some nice cheap replacement fairings!! sniff...)

I like a nice clean bike but all that white makes me want to add some color.

How about a blue SUZUKI on the tank?

Also notice you're missing the front reflectors on the forks. I'd get a pair of the Harley fork reflectors like Adidasguy has. Just picked up a pair myself.

Aaaand, ( Lol, these are all just suggestions), you can clean up the back a little more by redrilling the holes for the rear rectangular red reflectors. Posistion them so that they are flush to the tie down bars.

Just a few things that I see. No offense intended.  :thumb:

No offense taken, but I actually put the stock reflectors back on the front.
@phil b, I still can't figure out how you posted those pics instead of links to the pics. Please explain

Looks unfinished. Every time I see a bike like that I think 'crashed' or 'doesn't know what they're doing". No offense, it just doesn't seem like design/esthetics are a strong point for most people.

I like it alot.  I like the blank, no nothing look.  Makes me think, 'race,' or 'what the hell is that' and go in for better look.

Perfect blank slate, now all you need is a few Sharpie markers and some time. Then you can have something like this. I find something new everytime I take a look at it.

I thought about whether or not to put decals on it... but I decided I like the clean white look!!
@k rollin, that bike is hottt! Is it painted on or airbrushed?

That is AMAZING!!!

Can you imagine how long something of that detail would take to complete on our fairings though? More like 250 hours!

The owner spent 75+ hours with Sharpie markers at the suggestion of her son after she had said that she felt like a Stormtrooper (white helmet, white bike).

Great looking bike, very clean. I hate when ppl put crap all over the fairings.

Ju Tatu I like the all white look without any other things on it.  :thumb: :thumb:

Mono colors are good
Mono colors with slight accents are also good, when done right.
