Thinking of putting the Monster enegery stickers....

I think I am going to put the Monster energy stickers on the C14. The ZX14 has them from the factory and look great. I think it would break up the black very well, so I ordered some. I am also thinking of painting the ribs on the saddlebags green.
Here is what the ZX14 looks like:

And the C14 photochop:

I was thinking of doing just that, but I have a feeling I will have the stickers before I get a chance to do the photochop, so I will just post the real thing.

Doesn't matter because I just want a green accent, I could care less about the sponsorship. But I think that they still sponsor some dirt bike and some road racing effforts.

You know I seldom use the throttlemeister. I don't drone too much. I would rather have a real cruise control.

I am going to try to put them on tonight as well as replace the Tire Pressure sensors. Then tomorrow I will take it to the dealer and have him reprogram the ECU to recognize them .
Pictures to follow, and this time I will use a decent camera.
Anyone know if Pep Boys, Kragen, or Auto Zone carries lime green pinstriping tape?

I put them on this morning and they look great. A splash of color made a lot of difference. Very bright green. I will post pictures later.

When I look at the pictures, I am warming up to it. In person the stripes are pretty bright.
