ive got the psd files setup in photoshop now anyway doddsie, so making small changes and tweaks to the layers is (relatively) quick and easy. If i can get 4-5 designs pinned down (probably the 4 constituent flags, and the british one), that should appease the majority of people interested.

Theres no reason why i cant tweak the design to suit individuals as well though if someone wants something specific (for e.g. a LOFO design etc).

sometimes having too much choice is a bad thing though IMO  :thumbup

Find someone into "modern art" send them all to him/ her and get them to make a sculpture out of it.
Maybe each one with a picture of the bike it come off.
Dont ask it's a chef thing
After 15 years EX-Fazer owner XJR. XJR gone FJR, FJR gone NEW FJR that's gone, now Triumph Tiger Explorer  an CB400n Superdream sold BMW 650 Funduro sold Now a R1200GA Adventure Rallye next ? OK so where next turns out to be V-Strom 1050 NEXT?

What about putting a photo of Margaret Thatcher in it so she will always be with you on your bike ride.




Oh sorry this is the wrong thread  :evil .

That'd only entitle you to ride on private roads though




Surely you mean Miner roads  :) .

something like this perhaps? (excuse the roughness of the yamaha logo :o )





I think it needs to lose the `Yamaha` otherwise it would be YFOC-U.CO.UK (if not then the `M` needs altering so that the middle part is the same lengh as the rest of it) and those tuning forks definitely need to extend into the circle, but other than that  :thumbup :thumbup :thumbup




That probably sounds a bit picky but if it isnt right, someone will pick up on the Fazer owners club having the Yamaha logo wrong!



If anyone from around the world walked up to my bike and pointed out that the 'M' was not the right length in the middle on my Yamaha logo, i would have to immediately say "Nice to meet you Doddsie."  :lol

they dont necessarily need to be stickers guys - as they are designed primarily to go into the tax disk holder once tax disks become a thing of the past - you can just print them out yourselves and cut them out with normal paper :)

I could do mate. It may be a while, however, as my laptop has packed in and it will be a while before I get another.
