You carefully applied decals over the tang parts? By the way gray on black does look rather refreshing. There's no way you painted it though, not in 2 hours.

Quickest, easiest mod i did on my bike!  I ordered vinyl decals from cutgrafix.com.  You can find him on ebay.  His name is Rod and he lives in Australia.  Really nice guy to work with.  If you do it ask for the "oversized decal set".  Tell him exactly what you are doing and he will send you the right pieces. 
The center stripe was a bit of a bear to work with but a little patience and my wife's hair dryer and i go it to match up.  Also the tank pad fits perfectly over the "ugly part". No one will be the wiser.

And yes that is a chopped front fender. Stock and just had it painted.


Thanks for your kind words everyone!

Nice job, very classy. 

What exhausts do you have on your bike?

The exhaust is the Marving exhaust. Monsterparts.com has a connection in Italy with the manufacturer. I love the sound grumbly and loud! Had the Zards before they had a nice deep tone but this new set up is just as nice, just not as deep.

Monochromatic would be only one color.
