My ex-girlfriend's odd sense of humor lead to small John Deere logo stickers on my 09's rear fender and swingarm.
The weather here is damp & not much fun. So, I wandered over to the Tractor Supply Store where I spied a standard
sized, Slow Moving Vehicle, orange triangle-with-red-reflective-stripes-along-the-edge sign decal.
Just over a foot tall, it would look rediculous on a rear luggage box.
Then I thought, "What about a smaller version on the back fender as a joke? Say, 3 inches tall?"
I bought the decal & went straight home to cut it up into the proper pieces.
The results are in Yahoo group photo folder SMV.
I have three extras. Group offer:
1st three folks in the to send me a USA mailing address to transalp1@... ? I'll send you one.
That's it. If you want to send me a bike-related decal in return, cool. If not, also cool.
=)

Nice! How about a pic at night with headlights shining on it?
Ridiculous or not, I have contemplated mounting a full-size triangle on the back, just for the increased visibility.

Not sure how effective it'd be, given the angle of the fender.
But, once It's dark, I'll take a flash photo and see how it does.

I'm out of decals, KLR-istas.
Thanks for all who responded!
If the rains keep up, I may make some more.
A few answered after the last one was spoken for.
So, I'll get them out to you then.
Ride safely!

You dont want to put one of those on your bike. It's for vehicles that dont
go over a certain MPH. (15 I think...) I'm pretty sure that you can be
ticketed for it, but I'm not sure.

Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty
is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote.
