That there is an idea.:yes:

Funny add to this thread. (Star Wars themed)

A couple of weeks ago, my wife and I were on a ride ( Southern Indiana Dragon Round UP) During the ride, my wife was adjusting my hat , tying up the strings for my hoodie...etc... I started calling her my R2 unit like the R2 units in the Star Wars Rebel fighters."darth/vader2'
I then said my call sign would be Red 6 :banana:

I think it's a good idea on a red F6B !!!

Lot's of faces should fit the bike.
I first considered a predator, but could not find any good pciture.
After that, an Alien, but the head is too large. I considered then freddy krueger, but no good pictures.
Finally jason voorhees and Hannibal lecter were also good ideas and easy to realise with the mask.
But when I saw Vader, I was convinced.

If one day I see a good predator draw, I'll maybe change for it.

Love the Vader badge :yes:. Neil is doing an amazing job with all of our personalized badges :clap2:.

He's currently working on some for me too. These will be Decepticon badges, black background with red paint in the engraving. I believe Neil said these were the first to have paint in the engraving. Anyway, I'll be posting pics when they arrive. Thanks, Neil!

a couple of questions?

Do European models come without the Red Reflector on the saddle bag or did you take that off?
I want those grey'd out front reflectors on your front fender, where did you get those??

& what is that sticker on your left frame side???

Thanks in advance for any info... Ed

Thanks for the compliments on the badges. I have a lot of fun making them. There has been no shortage of original ideas from members on ways to personalize there bikes.
There is a few sets that I'm working on programming now that should turn out nice. I apologize for the long wait on some of the custom ones. I have to keep the boring production jobs running in the machine and throw the fun badges in when I have an opening.
Thanks for your patience.

No red reflectors here...I saw that only on the forum on your US model.
For the sticker, that's the VIN number for police check.
For the other ones in fact the picture here is black and white ;-)
Here is normal picture :
