Wow! Love the mods/work you’ve done. Can you please share info on your mirrors. That style/design is exa what I am looking for. Thank you and great job!
 
Very nice, think I prefer the red but then that's the beauty of vinyl wrap, easily changed.

Can I ask how difficult it was to wrap the tank piece, did you have to make seam at all?

I was partial to the red too, but there are red bikes everywhere, I wasn’t really happy with the result on the red, there were a few errors since it was my first try wrapping. So I tried the purple/blue and it was so unique and no errors so I decided to keep it l, at least for now. Like you said, easy to change.

It really wasn’t that difficult, I did make one seam with knifeless tape under the front of the 401 badge, it is not very noticeable at all.
 
Looks like a good job. That part in particular looks like it could be difficult to wrap, new to it myself.

I see you've wrapped the rear panel gloss black also, I'm planning to do the same but satin black, did you wrap it on the bike or remove the panel? if you removed it how easy was it to get off?

P.s I think LuisLAN meant the stickers on the frame etc...

I plan to re do the rear fairings in satin black too just waiting on the wrap to show up. I wrapped them on the bike for the bulk of it, loosely mounted with one or two fasteners just to keep it in place, and then when it was time to do the edges I took them off the bike. It is a lot easier to wrap them when you have them anchored to the bike, as when you pull and stretch it doesn’t move on you.

Ah, I see what you’re saying about the stickers, all the frame ones are definitely on my to do list.
