Opinions, ideas, and concepts wanted - C14 color schemes???

Desert Storm camo?

[Conniesaki]

Can you do one with the wheels the same green as my current bodywork and leave the bodywork green?

#1 ... green wheels as close as I could get to the green bodywork:

[Conniesaki]

And then also do one with the wheels and kawi/Connie badges green on the darker matte black bodywork??

Hmmm ... Well, here's the matte black with green wheels ... but getting the badges a different color will take a bit.

Desert Storm camo?

Thanks Conniesaki, I kinda like that.
Does anyone have any experience with vehicle wrap like they do for advertising?
Easy on, easy off when it's time to upgrade.  Something you can call your own while it's on.

Sorry for the highjack ZG, I just had to use Conniesaki's skills while he was at it.

I kind of like the Desert Storm camo.

No worries at all bro, he does have mad skills and this is a fun thread!

At the top of this page is my wife's Spyder. For her, this was a die-cut kit. I tried one piece and couldn't do it well. She spent about 30 hours on it over the course of a few weeks. I suspect without it being die-cut pieces but just big sheets to free form, it would be more difficult. She didn't have to deal with cut-outs like the vents in the fairing - just lots of complex and compound curved surfaces. She emailed about 3 local advertising shops and none of them would install it for her since they didn't supply it. You may have better luck in your area.
Here's a link to another vendor that has lots of sheet goods: http://powersportswraps.com/index.php

Hey Conniesaki. Like your work and appreciate your effort!   

How about "painting" the lower fairing instead of leaving it black?

Gold wheels on slightly darker matte black:

Hey CS, I got one more scheme I'd like to see if you have time...

On the green bodywork can you do the front fender, mirrors, tank, side case lids, and Corbin smuggler trunk all in the matte black, leaving the tail, sides, and upper all still green? 

If you could do that with gold wheels and then again with black wheels... 

Thanks again brother, yer awesome!

Jay ... Drat - I forgot you asked me to do this! Did you end up changing it up yet? I don't seem to see a thread saying so.

I got side-tracked because I finally got myself a bike. Not a Connie, tho ... don't shoot!!  I made the progression from considering a sport tourer to realizing I'm not a tourer, not vacationing on a bike, so:

Very nice acquisition Conniesaki!

Now THAT looks great

Very nice acquisition Conniesaki!      

Thank you, sir! Quite a blast after having been bike-free for about 13 years! Had to get my 'bike legs' back! Didn't take long, though. Got some new tires on it, and man this bike is flick-able. And y'all may or may not know, but this is a 1,000 cc V-twin ... instead of screaming like typical crotch rockets, this bike has a deep, gnarly rumble ... sounds kinda like a Nascar!  .. and a very linear power curve that starts down low.

Jay ... Drat - I forgot you asked me to do this! Did you end up changing it up yet? I don't seem to see a thread saying so.

Nope, I'd still like to see it if you find time brutha!

Jay - I don't know the C14 well enough: What are the "side case lids"? And am I showing the "tank" the way you meant? This is kinda caRaZay lookin'.



One more shameless plug for the rumbly crotch-rocket I settled on:

The side case lids just means the painted section of the side cases. Can you make those black too and also the wheels? 

Man that RC looks nice!
