I like it best left alone, your designs are cool, but I think the buddy is too retro looking to touch :lol:

i said #5 but I think i'd like it better without the #2 part...just the black, $0.02

Number 3 looks super fresh and clean!

Def. #3 - #4's black swoop is kinda unnecessary, and #5 is too busy.

#3 isn't bad... if you could find some Black reflective tape for the design that would be cool at night. Just my .02

I am with Christy, #5 without the white part as in the later picture you posted.

The OEM blinkers look like eyes and the swoop look like eye brows creating a mean face. Nice :D

#2!

I say #2, but the front fender would still be cool with something on it... If you do the fender thing, I think it would be better with black and white, not just black. As everyone else said, this just my opinion, but that's the point of this thread right? :mrgreen:

can you reverse the #5 colors, so that black is white and white is black?

the #2 (white and black thingie) seem a bit too busy for my own taste. the asymmetrical flames though are unique, very cool i say

I like #5. Most of the time it won't be seen straight on anyway, so having a little something on both sides of the shield doesn't really hurt anything IMO.
