So I decided to take the plunge. I'm going to hold off on making my bike a street fighter. That is a lot of work just to get mounting gear for the headlights and gauges. I live in an apartment so I can't fab my own.Plus, I don't want to modify or sell my stock parts. I want to be able to switch back and forth.
I decided to order matte black 3m vinyl wrap. It will be a DIY project.I know it is difficult but I've watched a lot of videos and read a lot of blogs, while everyone I have read stated it was hard, all of them managed to get a clean wrap in the end.
I have a 2012 white, I planned a color change when I bought it. Never liked the white, black looks good but I like matte so I took what they had in stock.
I ordered some reflective blue pin-striping from steetglo.net. I plan on doing accents like:
I could also go all black, with black pinstripe tape that reflects white. Or I could go matte black with reflective while accents and logos.
I found a couple sites that sell reflective vinyl YAMAHA, but one is only 4"x1", I want a larger YAMAHA on my belly pan, so I'll have to get the more expensive custom one.
So, any opinions on the color scheme? Black/white, black/blue or black/black?
One more thing, aluminum rear sprocket, I can get it in black or blue, is it worth it?
