You have a coil cover so that's a good thing at least!

Performance Berks sticker. I remember that issue... Alex I may even still have those stickers... I never stick stickers on stuff... In fact the only one Ive ever stuck to a tool box is one that Andy on this very forum sent me... and its an LC250 side panel RD250 one lol And... When i did my Garage Art full fairing I got to use up a bunch of course.

I think that performance berks stick set also came with one that said 'passengers are requested to refrain from screaming'.
I had that stuck onto the back of my lid for ages.

They did loads over the years. Often 'sort of amusing'

I was parked up on my LC, and remember being berated by an irate woman, who took offence at the performing berks sticker on the bottom of my number plate that read ‘I speed up for horses’, I didn’t/don’t obviously, but she wasn’t receptive to my explanation of irony ☹️. Cuserable Mint.

I remember putting the 'God it's so big' sticker on my work PC monitor, facing an absolute porker/tusker of a girl I worked with. She didn't seem unduly pleased with it, so job jobbed...

The remains of that sticker are still on the tailpeice of my GSXR1100K. (Sorry for the foul stroke ) Back in the 90`s, one passenger , who had a ZXR400 , asked me to ride flat out so he could appreciate what the 11 was like. Opened it up down the local bypass, the odd noise turned out to be him screaming , he said his foot had come off the footpeg and his leg was trailing , and he couldn`t get it back on the peg till I backed off

Cuserable Mint. Ha, I remember the fuss that one caused. They published a complaint letter by someone from the horse brigade and replied that as way of apology they would pay for one of the horse magazines to produce a sticker something along the lines of 'I drop sh!t on the racing line'.

Colin Haha, I’d never heard that Colin 😁, however I can imagine that’d be the kind of irreverent response from Hargreaves and Co. Brilliant, sadly it wouldn’t happen today, I imagine even motorcycle journalism hasn’t escaped this overly woke culture that’s sweeping the planet.

I remember seeing "Phastasphuck" on a plate on a ZX(something)R parked outside a chippy in the Halesowen area and thought it very funny, my other half thought it was just plain rude... yeah, she didnt last lol
Not everyone is amused in the same way we are lol

I remember the look on the old lady's face in our local village shop, when I picked up my copy of 'Bike' magazine back in the day, with the patch on the front saying 'Cars Suck' with a middle finger 😂

IIRC my mate has that sticker on the back of his 3 wheel Berkeley?
I’ll have to check next time I’m down there.
