Default Stripes on my Street Glide

Was kicking the idea around of having some graphics or a second color (two tone) painted on my crushed ice street glide. While i love the color, it just looks a little bland when the sun isn't shining. Anyway after a few quotes of $1000 and way on up I decided to try this first.....Ads some color and looks pretty cool IMO. What do you think???

I dig it. I'd like to see a better pic though. Sunshine, water in the background, nice blue sky, girls in bikinis...

Did you actually do it or is that a photo-shopped pic to give you an idea?

I think it would look cool with that design or similar, but use silver or anthracite versus orange and outline it in black.

It looks like a streamer got caught on batwing and is wrapped around the bike, just not for me.

I prefer something a little more subtle just enough to break up the mono tone of the solid color, like pin stripping ghost flames.

I like it but would do a little less of it on the fairing. With the way it is now on the fairing, it reminds me of those things you put across your nose at night to help open your nose so you can breathe. You asked.
