Well if you really wanna be a rebel, I say you should use the Hell's Angel's skull design on your tank and park your bike outside your local HA Clubhouse.

Please set up a video camera somewhere discrete before you let 'em see you, and ask one of your friends to post the result on youtube, so we can all enjoy your artwork, and post our condolences to your family...... ;D

Don't you mean OUTLAWS?

Neither one would take too kindly to the idea.
If it's worth doing at all it's worth over-doing.

Ah, irony! Rebellion by way of fitting in, people beating other people because they look like them, and the stigma of defaming symbols as badges of pride. Humans are bizarre animals.

Nah, I'm an old man and I remember when motorcycle gang members were "Rebels", before they got all romantic about the Walt Disney version of their Cowboy past, and became "Outlaws". The skull in that patch looks like a gay alien, not that there's anything wrong with that............ ;D
I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

Alan,

The view from across the pond; ignore cheesy pirates and motorcycle gangs and celebrate your defining moment as Americans as rebels against the British crown.

You know; yer actual rebel not any sort of made up one.

Hey what would really be cool is to paint SOA on your tank and I think you can get the full Sons of Anarchy patch set on e-bay for your cut. Maybe even the full back tat as well. Oh man, that would be sweet. Maybe we could all get them and then ride together to the local pub. Just be careful of the Wild Hogs cuz I heard they're really mean.

OK, somebody slap me please - I must be having a relapse of my brain fog. Maybe your original idea is best... :)
Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most.

"Shot up the alley and then cut across the street" - now that's some violence you can appreciate!

I think I'm just going to put every single biker gang logo I can find on it.
It's almost twice as old as me, I don't know how the hell it works!

Ahahaha, you beat me too it! Now everyone can be an instant badass with just a click of the mouse, no need to hang around or prospect!


On second thought nothing says rebel like a Honda rebel, just get one of those and you're all set.

Or just buy a Rebel badge from your Honda shop and put it on your bike, maybe with some nice streamers coming outta the handgrips, and some baseball cards in the spokes to give it a deep "note". Dreamy............. ;D

Alan, I for one have always liked the skull and crossbones (or swords, I guess, but I like bones better).  But I would ditch the text, but that is just my personal preference.

I have a skull and crossbones on my 750 cafe.  You can see it if you follow the link in my signature.  And frankly, I don't give one rip of someone out there thinks it's cheesy, or "ghey," or hipster, or whatever.  It's on ONE of my bikes... one of my NINETEEN bikes.  When I have 19 bikes, mostly vintage except for maybe 3, and someone wants to think I am a "hipster" or whatever just because I have a skull, then poop on them.

Besides, you can always change it in the future if you grow tired of it.

Just my 2¢.
