I took off all the badges and re-did the whole motif, I call it the UnionJack now. I just did a post for it earlier, but thought I would put some pics here too

I had to disassemble the front panel to do this. I LOVE how it looks!

I'm really digging this Life/Death Sticker I found on Ebay and it would look great on a black buddy, but I don't really want to brand the "Death" on something I can die on... The sticker reads right-side-up and also upside-down.

hey thanx kneil !! and hey fobbish i belive methodman from the wutang clan has that tattooed on his arm, i saw it in a source mag like ten years ago and thought the same thing. So i drew it and had it on my wall for the longest. just in case anyone cares
I spent some time today removing most of the factory fitted stickers from my scooter. Just didn't like them. They looked like they belong on a teenagers scooter. Now it's just a plain "old guy's" scooter but I think it looks better.
Finally removed the last of the mandatory factory fitted stickers. A lot of fingernail scraping around the edges was involved. They didn't come off easy. Tar & Bug remover got rid of any left over sticky stuff really well. Now I have to find something I like to stick on in their place Before
After

Just been searching Ebay for decals & have found the perfect ones for each side of my scooter.
Just waiting to hear back to see if they come in opposite pointing directions so when I put them on they will both point forwards. I have a Snoopy tattoo so this will match nicely.
my favorite band, pretty much. its not a band logo or anything, so it most likely is just a letter X to most. matches the paint of the scoot
silver pinstripes down the center of the fender and handlebars. also have some on the muffler cover. i took off the tacky boy racer decals and replaced them with tacky reflectors. also have some reflector tape around the front forks and down the mirror stems
this sticker is where the X sticker is, only on the other side of the scoot
pics of my reflector tape because i likes it. its the same color as the scoot when not reflecting, so it blends in and matches perfectly. i think i did a right job applying it here and there on my scooter

i got them at an auto parts store. they are fairly common in my area (L.A.) but don't know about the rest of the country. they are made by Optitronics. i found them online here. i paid $4.18 for all three of mine.
they come with white adhesive backing thats pretty strong. mine never even threaten to loosen up and fall off. the oblong ones also have two holes to fit screws
and sure, they have very good reflective properties, as you can see in the flash. sort of a diamond pattern. they work well, and i do feel as if they help with my scoot being noticed at night
Two of my favorite stickers (my bike is also covered with signatures, pithy sayings, and a hundred days worth of mileage logging from my Alaska trip):

I crossed the Arctic Circle on Alaska's Dalton Highway, I survived the Top of the World Highway, and I drove the Alaska Highway both ways DAMMIT! I missed out on PCH and 50 stickers but they were hard to find.

If you like the look of the bullet holes (see my earlier post and tumblr link), I have twelve convertible car seat reviews
 holes that I'm not gonna use. They sent me five sheets of four and I only used eight holes.
