I am working on a Serenity themed Motorcycle which I hope to finish and ride to the opening of Serenity in Chicago in the fall. She's reached a point where
I can start looking at options on graphics more seriously.

The build process is being reported on my website at
http://home.insightbb.com/~havoc/project.html for anyone who wants to follow the progress or offer suggestions.

The bike will be a custom job when finished; but, is based in the Suzuki GS850 - one of the most reliable used bikes on the road and referred to as "bullet proof".. something attributed to the firefly class ships as well. ;)

The color scheme on the bike will fade from a rich brown on the lower edges of the tins to a burnt orange. The tank will feature "firefly Serenity" on both sides along with a stylized Serenity logo.
Original Suzuki badges will be replaced with firefly themed badges. And "can't stop the signal" may appear in chinese along the forward downtubes. I'm looking for more ideas to dress her up and add little details to her that people will appreciate as much as I hope to. So any ideas are welcome. Take a look and let me know what you think. Keep it shiny.

PS. I'm adding a COGA digital programmable horn to the bike if I can make it work properly - will play the music from the "Hero of Canton".. ;)

That's gonna look awesome! A lot of work!

I took a simpler route. I had ArtCat cut me up a large vinyl decal of the Blue Sun logo (in red, to match my paint scheme) and slapped it on the rear seat cowl of my CBR F4i.

I'll post pics this weekend.

LOL. That's such a great idea that I've already designed the stickers... now I'm just waiting for my friend to get back from his vacation so he can cut the stickers for me.
