Title: Gave my V7 Stone a Makeover
Post by: robdrobd on June 23, 2016, 08:31:33 PM

Orange racing stripe, numbers, and some sweet high visibility bags to top it off!

I really quite like that. I'd like to see the stripe run down the rear fender with possibly a light touch of pinstripe for balance along the edge of the front fender.

Did you paint or vinyl tape?

Those are just leftover vinyl decals from an old cafe racer project I finished last year.

Where did you get the yellow headlight?
Would it fit in your V7 bucket?

I think the stripes on the tank and bags look great!

I'd probably not have done the numbers on the side-cover; and although that sticker looks ok on the rear fender, I think I'd ditch it and continue the stripe theme on both fenders.

But I guess everyone has an opinion.

The headlight is a tint material that is trimmed to size. The numbers represent my year of birth. In any case, the vinyl allows me to change it up whenever I want. The big guzzi sticker on the back is covering up some scratches where the PO installed the fender Eliminator Kit and best the original all to hell.

Nice  :thumb:

My two cents, add the same stripe from the tank to front and rear fenders...the fronts are cheap, so you could have a couple different ones on hand...make some versions

Sounds like a plan!
