Red/gold version.. BTW, Internet Explorer 6 or older cannot handle the png-file transparency correctly, so if you have it, now would be the time to upgrade..

I think I like the red wing best. The last one seems like the colors are reversed on the wing. Seems like it should be outlined in gold and most of it silver?
all three are very nice looking though |

The gold stands out better but the silver looks more like what is on my bike.
Either one looks great to me! |

Having the wing and custom the same ties the whole thing together. The first, more silver wing one looks good, but appears more like three strung together elements that don't really have anything to do with each other, though the spacing is spot on.
I'd say that outlining the red letters in gold to match the wing and custom would really connect everything together quite nicely.
Very well done. |

To my eye the upper silverish version looks a little more 'vintage', i like it better than the more gold. |

Sorry for flooding the forums with nonsense but just had to try once more with reflective black approach:
Edit: some changes to the wing..

I'm not real keen on the black. Like the more subdued gold one the best but they are all very cool.
Do have a Adm., mod., question, does it have to have the "S" ? |

I guess I could paint over it on my screen. That's how I got rid of that damn bug that they put in the corner of the tv screen. Bought some tv bug remover from Ronco, funny, I can't see much in that corner now? |
