Its poll time folks !

Evel's long been a hero of mine (i've got stacks of memorobilia !) and as i'm in the market for an additional set of paintwork for a change, just wondered what you all thought of a tribute paint job !!?

Something along the lines of this;

There was obviously never a connection between ducati and evel but what the hell..I'd look the nuts flying across the cotswolds on it with my flapping cape...lol !!!

SO....

sorry pal, not really a fan, tho if you swapped the white on the turmpet, for red, it would look magicio!

but then i guess it would look more like a Ben Bostrom tribute, than a Evel tribute..............

Go for it....just as long as you don't try & put those god awful Lilley pipes on it...they look AWFUL!

Oh, and its your bike, do with it what you want. If Evel was a hero of yours, celebrate it.

As long as you get the matching pants and socks set it might just be socially acceptable

I was going to say

drop it off a high ramp
but I think Pedro got there first :D

I know just how to get this done at minimal cost!

I'm going to say no, cos I wanted a Laguna Seca Honda SP-2, but I can see the error of my ways.

I think it would look grand. Red, white and blue & stars, can't go wrong. You'd have to get a (big) lid done as well, apparently.
