Sorry guys, had to share my new bike graphics with you, as I am pretty happy about how it turned out in the end. I couldn’t ride a lot this year due to some weird virus infect I had in the summer. So I decided to at least show my 2016 SXF350 some love by upgrading it with some new plastics und and decals.

I semi-customized a existing dark black-grey template by bringing in a bit of the „man in black“ - of which I am a big fan.

Took some quick iPhone pictures after completing it today and just had to share them with you guys.

Haha, good point!

But I don’t race (a lot) anymore.
And if it should happen in the future, I guess I have to bring some white duct tape with me Pinch

When I read the title and opened the thread I was expecting to see a One Piece AT A Time frankenbike moto version of JC's Cadillac. Cool

Nice bike though.

As Maverick mentioned it was Bling Graphix. But I had a direct contact to a guy from Germany that did change the existing template the way I wanted it.

Thanks guys for the great feedback.
It was a first go at a customizable sticker kit, and it was really spontaneous without any planing in advance.
I just searched for some nice Cash-Logos and put them where I thought they will fit the best. Then I changed some of the colors of the original template, to get a little more orange into all the black and grey.

Didn't care much about the other brands printed on the decal, since I am not racing and there is no need to represent any sponsors. This is why there is a Öhlins graphic and the WP forks. I just didn't care.

But if I did it again, I would put some more time into it, and replace all the industry logos with stuff that has to do with Johnny Cash. I.e. song titles, some more Cash-themed logos etc...

Nice, but did you build the bike one piece at a time by sneaking parts home in your lunch box?
