Dave77459 Posted June 10, 2009 Share #1 Posted June 10, 2009 On my recent ride to the Grand Canyon, we ran across a couple towing a trailer behind their Harley. The trailer and saddlebags were covered with stickers of places they'd been on the bike. Key West, Alaska, Sturgis, national parks, even Europe. It was pretty impressive. Has anyone done this? What do you do when you want to sell your bike? How do you keep them pretty? Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loehring Posted June 10, 2009 Share #2 Posted June 10, 2009 Lots of pins and patches on the vest but no stickers on the bike. If I really want to do that I'll start driving an old Volkswagen van. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Condor Posted June 10, 2009 Share #4 Posted June 10, 2009 The '93 I picked up in AZ had stickers from everywhere all over the windshield. Once I got it back home I took the windshield and License plate off and sent them back to the P.O. as he wanted it as a keepsake. The windshield was toast anyway.... I do put equipment stickers on the bike...on the underside of the trunk lid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
50btripn Posted June 10, 2009 Share #5 Posted June 10, 2009 Ummmm.... NO unless you count the VentureRider.org sticker I will e placing strategically on my windshield when I receive it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indyventure Posted June 10, 2009 Share #6 Posted June 10, 2009 I do the same sort of thing but not on my venture. I do it on my Givi bags on my Vstrom. Now granted the bags are painted hi-viz green so I need something to tone them down. Having such an ugly bike can be somewhat liberating! I have to admit it is fun to collect the stickers from all over where I ride. It kind of invokes memoies of the travel cases that you used to see that show everywhere they've been.

jemorrisonjr Posted June 10, 2009 Share #7 Posted June 10, 2009 I've removed a lot of the things off the bike...unless it is chrome there is no reason to have it on the bike......lol:hurts: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sailboarder Posted June 10, 2009 Share #8 Posted June 10, 2009 I put all my stickers on the inside lid of the trunk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkrieg Posted June 10, 2009 Share #9 Posted June 10, 2009 Only sticker i out on my bike was the Venturerider.org sticker. That went on the bottom of the windshield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozark Posted June 10, 2009 Share #10 Posted June 10, 2009 Only sticker i out on my bike was the Venturerider.org sticker. That went on the bottom of the windshield. I have that and a CMA bike blessing sticker. I can understand covering up a Harley with stickers,, but why would anyone disfigure a Venture??

Hummingbird Posted June 10, 2009 Share #11 Posted June 10, 2009 Stickers belong in a pile on your desk - except for the Venturerider.org that belongs on the windshield just aboev the chrome trim:thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a1bummer Posted June 10, 2009 Share #12 Posted June 10, 2009 Not on my bike or other vehicles. I made a bracket to put my parking permits and state park sticker on and mounted it to my license plate frame. A clear lexan one for the park stickers. I will put them on on the trailer or the pop-up camper. They're both ugly anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StarQ Posted June 10, 2009 Share #14 Posted June 10, 2009 I put a "This bike climbed Mt Washington" sticker on the lower portion of the back fender (the black part) of my '84 VR. I was proud to display it. If you've never taken a bike to the top of Mt Washington, you should. If you have, you should do it again. I rode up twice on my VR and hiked up it once.

RedRider Posted June 10, 2009 Share #17 Posted June 10, 2009 I have place a Tail of the Dragon sticker on one side of my trunk and a IronButt organization sticker on the other side. Both are very small (~ 2" x 2"). Will shortly be placing the VentureRider.org sticker on the windshield. On the KLR, I am beginning to populate the aluminum panniers with stickers. Intend to completely cover these ugly protrusions eventually. RR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
halfwitt Posted June 10, 2009 Share #18 Posted June 10, 2009 No stickers on the bike - no stickers on the cars. I put a political bumper sticker in the window once every four years but that comes off after the election. The only bumper sticker I have ever put on a car was in 1976 - a kewpie doll for someone who gets the reference - the bumper sticker said "Free Jessica Tate". But anyway - nope - no stickers.

adventurer 08 Posted June 11, 2009 Share #19 Posted June 11, 2009 Just got two stickers on my bike. I put my black venture sticker on the windshield and my silver one on the bottom half of my trunk. I'm not a sticker guy but I think these look ok! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
