i swung by a no fear store and picked up a coupe of large stickers for mine and a bunch of small ones for my sons 50.

nothing to fancy but then the other day my son came down from his room with an ugly monster energy sticker. it looks just like a big can of monster. and he said daddy i wanna put this on you bike for you. i was like uhhhhhhhhhhh thanks son but it wont really look good and i dont think i have room for it. he kept trying and i gave in. its still on there bubbled up and all. but i like it cause he really wanted to do it for me.

Yeah my wife wants to put dragon stickers on her klx250s. I'm like oookkaayyy....

I used to put stickers on our bikes/atvs because of the contingencies when we raced. Now if their not paying me there not going on unless they are sumthin that I really believe in or really cool looking. Theres a couple Scotts stabilizer stickers on the Husky. BRP, Baja Designs, IMS & Uptite didn't send any with their products.

However, stickers of stuff you don't have is poser to the max.

I guess its like most everything else. In moderation.
nah, not my point. I'm saying that decals advertising the parts you may or may not have on your bike in the wrong place looks tacky. like your fox decal on your numberplate. to me, that's tacky and not well thought out. but like my other post states, just my opinion.

Well, I think it looks good, so I guess that's all that matters. I thought that was called the side cover? I thought the number plate was the area above the headlight?

P.S.: I can't believe I haven't caught flak about my college parking sticker on the gas tank :P I think it looks HIDEOUS... but uh, gotta have one to park on campus.

I have weird Czech sticker I've been saving for a few years. It's a picture of a woman that looks like a duck in military outfit, and it says in Czech "My Mother In Law Is Driving" I think that's going on the right side panel-the one that's scratched. Not sure if it'll fall off because of the deep scratches.

Personally I'd rather have a side panel sticker that has little to do with bikes than with the parts on the bike. I saw a swingarm somewhere that had permanent marker writing that said "Eat ****"

Now THAT is trashy. But after a while, if you ride this bike it's going to get beat up. I think it looks cool beat up. Urban Assault Mount and Woods Weapon look.

personally, I like the black sidepanels... I havn't had any luck with the paint I put on, but still I think it looks better imo.

Black comes stock over here and it is very nice looking. I have to agree with the naked look, as the only sticker I left on the bike was the stock D-Tracker one on the rad covers.
