Paint/Vinyl/Sticker work
Right, I've got the paint, i'm now just waiting for the weather to turn to hell so I can take the old girl off the road.
Just wondered if anybody has photoshop and could edit a pic of my bike to show what kinda graphics I should go for. I've got a mate with a sign writing business so can get pretty much whatever I want done!! I've got some pics on hard disk if somebody needs them sending across for editing....The fairings are going to be white as are the wheels and I'd like to do the frame black and have black vinyls/stickers. Come on ppl, I know u wana help me out really!!!

I wish I had that problem. If you need shitty weather just move to Maine. 40 and raining this past week. already had 2 inches of snow touch down!
never mind, you live in England. Just enjoy it, weather will take a turn sooner or later...

Ok here's your blank slate. I only had one filler pattern button that didn't crash Photoshop... heh.
On another note- you want the vinyl pattern on the tank, fairings, both or somethin' else? One color?

Seriously, there was this hot looking girl in Mission Motorsports last year when my wife and I were waiting for new tires to be installed on one of our bikes. She had a GSX R 1000, and she said that the next week she was taking it in to have it painted with a "Hello Kitty" theme. Then she was going to ride it to the Rock Store.

Is there any chance you could do something with both the front and back view? If you PM me your email addy I will send you the originals, they should be better quality than the ones you are using on the forum, no?
As far as the where I'd like the vinyl I'll let you come up with something....but it all has to be white paint and black vinyl (with a touch of red perhaps?!)
One thing I forgot to mention is that I'm looking to put carbon cans on at some point so would like them doing black also (i know I'm asking alot,but, I bet you love the challenge lol)
Any other thoughts and suggestions are more than welcome!!
PS.
Here is a side pic of a Storm already in black and white (although the wheels are black and not white) that you could use?

Got the photoshop fingers a little warm this evening:
Feedback from everyone interested is great- I spend time setting up the file to the point that when I lay the graphics on I lose the big picture sometimes!

I'm really liking the last picture thanks for the ideas!!
I dont think its gonna be easy to vinyl it up, I think its gonna have to be masked and sprayed....not a bad thing to me, maybe to my spray guy tho lol
What does everybody else think? I dunno how to add a poll to the thread now??

I was kinda wondering how easy it would be to vinyl this bike in general- it's got such luscious curves (but then again I know squat about vinyl other than my seat is made from it)! Don't poll it yet, we can work through some more ideas- I like to think of these things as sketch evolutions rather than dead set designs...
