Craig,

I understand what you are saying, but...

My idea was not to make a copycat beemer from a BA, but rather take some visual cues from it and apply it to the America to personalize my bike since it is still pretty much stock and not a reflection of myself yet.

Others have been making their own carved seat, their own paint scheme, etc... I am just looking at stuff to show off my bike in a way that says: It's mine!

Maybe it is because I have a ever changing personality, up to now, I haven't been able to stick with one design/idea...

So far, this is the best I came up with and it seems it is still sticking in my mind and heart. As soon as I have some time, I will be starting on this "little" project... Still little tweaking to figure out some stuff here and there though.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts, all of you.

and you still dont have the huge design element which is the frame with those spars running alongside the tank. its a fine idea, please dont mistake my critique; all i'm pointing out is that to do it right will take alot of work.. short of that yer gonna end up with the "monster" that you fear. the R7 is art, thats why it never made production. its hard to reproduce art on a grand scale. our bikes (especially in our minds) are art as well, but poster art as compared to DaVinci.
