Is that Mossy Oak New Break Up? Very nice.
It would look great if the original gray parts
were changed to flat dark olive for the camo
version.

Why don't ya do it. You could cover that nasty black with it and give your bike a new and better look.

if the people at Buell would've listened to me over a year ago that's what they would look like.

That stuff is cool looking and it will come off if you want to change the look later. It sure makes more sense than that $1000 desert camo kit.

I don't want it for mine though. It is hard enough for me to remember where I park my orange one! I'd probably trip over it while trying to find it.

If you'll notice. The realtree camo has been applied over the "wrinkled nutsack ugly" orange color. ;)

so is that some kind of adhesive backed film you are using? It looks better than the desert camo that buell came out with. Not sure if I want to camo the Uly.
Rather have a rat bike dual sport and rattle can the whole thing. But then no one has ever accused me of having good taste.

Cool stuff

I like the Advantage camo myself. I am slowly collecting extra body parts to make a camo version, but want to have the original orange parts, cause everyone knows ORANGE IS FASTER

Daves,
Just curious. How do you apply that camo without ending up with wrinkles and air bubbles? Or do we just not notice them in the photos?

I had someone else do it!
Otherwise it would look like shit.

It involved a lot of stretching,pulling, heating and using a little plastic Squeegee to get it smooth

Only Ft_bstrd would say "wrinkled nutsack ugly", because he knows that later in life his neck will look like a wrinkled vagina!
