It's your bike.. But I understand the want for opinions.

I like it, but agree... a picture from further back would be good.
 
I think it looks good, but would look better without the Suzuki sticker on the stator cover....
But overall I like it a lot.

ok here is a pic from a bit further away. got some new bling on the way too. black anodized handlebars and billet aluminium replacements for the reflectors on the tail piece

ive been looking at that too and decided it has to go, too many suzuki's in such a small space
 
I like the look. Its got a touch of class to an otherwise disconnected piece. Its a nice way to tie it into the rest of the ride.
 
Since you've asked for opinions, I'll express mine.

I think the bike looks fantastic overall, but I'd do the chin scoop differently. Because your "theme" is a 2/3rds length black stripe on the tank and the side covers, I'd not put the "suzuki" on the scoop and instead just put a simple 2/3rds black stripe on it. Just a thought to clean it up a bit and maintain continuity.

Once again, fantastic job so far.
 
The bike is mega, you already know that much. I love the font on the sticker but it really doesn't need another Suzuki one just there. If it were me, just my opinion here but, what about a black line to break the block of white up and tie into the tank and side panel instead?

Overall, it's top banana is that Dude, and no coffee stains on it? Mine had a few rings on when it lived in the house, lol!


EDIT:
Dohhh, bet me to it Grifin

cheers for your opinion mate, i did try many variations on the stripe on the belly pan but could not come up with a solution that i was happy with.
just thoght the suzuki graphic would add a bit of style to oppose all the rest of the straight lines
 
While I really like the decal and the font etc, I am not sure it "fits" the bike. It's kinda new school on an old school bike?

It doesnt look bad by any means though, if you like it that's all that matters, I would park my bike really far from yours, otherwise I would drive mine into the ocean in shame!
 
I don't think you need it, the 'less is more' rule applies here.
Bikes looking great by the way.:D
 
Sorry Agemax

Don't know if you are still in the photoshop stage ; but I could not resist.:o.

I was sensitive to your sense of modesty and avoiding putting anything else on that chin fairing .

Take it or leave it; I'm just playing around. :-\\\

At least for me, I have found if you go a little over the top, you get used to it in due time and then what seemed like too much is actually a little more interesting. Your bike is very nice regardless.

jim its not a photoshop, its a real decal, i just thought it needed something to put some detail in there, i didnt want any sponsor type decals and as said, i tried a stripe to match the rest of the bike and just could not get it to work for me.
any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated ;)
 
I like it, and love the bike but I am not sure if it needs the decal.
Cheers
