    Here we go, I've just been messing with photoshop touch on my iPad this morning, gonna get one of my designers at work to do a proper job of it but this is pretty much what we've been working on although I've just used the images off autotrader to get a live bike feel (ours has so far been based on race bike shots which is hard to imagine lights on)

    So

    Standard

    [​IMG]

    White wheels, tail removed, number 10 removed, still need to add the exhaust cover for the yoshi and remove the top logos off the rear seat unit as I think that's too much

    Standard front

    [​IMG]


    Then front with number 10 removed, removed castrol stickers as I didn't think they sat right and also widened the white nose area so it dosnt look stuck on like a number board and dropped the white off the screen as I've never been a fan of that, besides I like my Honda racing screen.

    [​IMG]


    gonna keep working on it this next few days and then decide which way to go.....bit gutted they've already beat me to it to be honest but I don't like theirs, may look at reducing the Samsung font on the side but IMO its not that bad, I think the stripe centrally down the tank and rear cowl will set it off more and just dump further Samsung livery off the tank and rear end. May consider a black pin stripe around the edge of the white nose to break it up further but white in to blue looks ok so far.

    So, what dya reckon, any better? Or still not in to it as a scheme?

    Yep, I like that damo, an improvement for sure. I already love the wheels but they look even better in white.

    What is that JM1, where did you get that image from? Is that simply a stripped back 2012 thats had the matt black vinyl treatment? Looks ultimate stealth, i like it.

    .... but not by much.

    Like some paint jobs on cars can knock hundreds off the price, i think this scheme will add nothing to its selling price or second hand desirability.

    I can see it looking a lot better with white wheels but it still needs something more
