Default '09 owners, some pics please!

The big white sides on my 09 need a decal or a number or something and I just cant figure out what I want to put there. Anyone with an 09 that hooked their bike up with some decals or something can you post some pics so I can get some ideas?

I put a big FOX sticker on the side panels. Its a high-contact area, I've already beat up my decals there, but it still looks good.

Here's what mine looks like:


Conversely, you could put a bunch of smaller stickers there.

imo, any decal other than a professional grade competition number looks ridiculous and gaudy on the sidepanel. I personally prefer the plain white if you're not racing it but that's just me (it's a dual-sport bike). I think plastering your bike with decals and stickers is a little 1980s'ish and for kids and their minis. unless of course you're a pro and are required to do so which in that case the stickers are installed in a uniform manner. hey though, just my opinion.

spkgo photoshop in a moto led tail light and black out the top of the front fender like they do in rally or baja racing. That would be what I'd like to run.

Around this neck of the woods fox was the president of mexico so people run them all around here.

Well, then I guess I'm a 1980ish immature brat, 'cause I think it looks good to have stickers of the parts you have on the bike. I think naked bikes look ridiculous myself. Dirt bikes inherently look alike, so if you take all the stickers off, the untrained eye doesn't know if its a red KLX250 or one of a million Hondas. However, stickers of stuff you don't have is poser to the max.

I guess its like most everything else. In moderation.

Agreed. I've got a buddy w/ a bike just like mine. W/out sickers, well, who's is whose? Do we hop on and try the ignitions?

If you have so many stickers you can't tell what color the bike is -- well, that's overboard.

However, tactfully stuck ones are kinda cool and add a personality to the bike.

I have the same dilema speedracer25f. Just haven,t come accross the right decal for the side panel. Nothin wrong with personalizing you ride when tastefilly done.
