Skull + skeleton dude strapped to my bars .. check!!

Don't get me wrong or misinterpret what I'm trying to say. I'm not disparaging you, or implying anything bad about YOU personally, just that I think that the skulls don't go with the GZ image. It's sort of making a GZ rider into a bigger badder biker wannabee. Your bike is a lot different than a GZ and that logo can fit very well for you and that bike. I don't think the kind of bikers associated with the connotation behind skulls ride a GZ.
Hell, if anyone showed up at a Hell's Angels gathering on a GZ he'd probably be run off out of town by the laughter if not something more brutal.
And not the pink flowers and rainbows you suggested - they are more for small imported cheapo scooters, IMHO.

And how did we get on this from the original thread anyway? Our ability for free association is getting way off the mark.
