I haven't seen one in North America. This is just simply my interpretation. The 4 feathers was intentional, not an error. The larger space between 3 & 4 was to accommodate a V4 VTEC logo which I have since abandoned the idea of. I am going to remove #4 and replace it with the same spacing. The black reflective vinyl is really nice in person. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Dangeruss Posted August 26, 2021 Member Contributer Share Posted August 26, 2021 I really like that. I have a black 5th Gen so it would be really subtle during the day. Is each 'feather' a single piece that you cut around the holes and vents? I am also in Ontario, not far from CFB Borden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Cogswell Posted August 26, 2021 Member Contributer Share Posted August 26, 2021 Personally I see nothing wrong with some artistic interpretation. Below is how Rob executed the same concept on his Gen 5. I had never thought of whether it was the same as the Honda wing logo despite having seen it in person numerous times. I just thought it looked good. I even see some Gen 4 in the way he painted the fairing lowers - looks like the belly pan on a 4th gen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ejphotos Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 That's really cool. I like how it lights up at nighttime when light hits it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer ducnut Posted September 11, 2021 Member Contributer Share Posted September 11, 2021 For sure, laying out graphics on these bikes, with their compound curves, is incredibly difficult and I applaud Boosh63’s efforts. I started with initial layout work, one day, and budgeted a full day for sticking them, the next day. The only way my wings look completely lined up and straight is looking directly at the bike from the side, on a stand. But, they never look straight in pics. Rob, at Tape Works, was who originally designed the templates for VFR wing graphics. He’s been around decades, being heavily involved in the graphics on many USA-based, factory racebikes of the 1990’s and 2000’s. He did my graphics and offers a 6th Gen version, if someone wanted something more accurate to the Honda wing graphics of of that period (Boosh63’s wings are of a later era Honda).
