    The Meteor is indeed looking great, did throw me at first thinking this was an older video I had missed - look forward to more :)

    Hi Glyn, the graphics have turned out really cool! 😁👍
    I first thought oh no - how will they go on the curves of the tank without creasing? But their narrow pattern seems to have been ok👍
    I got a little roller with serrated wheels for rolling inner tube patches thats ideal for smoothing on stickers too! , 😁👍

    • @GlynOC
      @GlynOC  7 месяцев назад +1

      Thanks Bruce, that roller would have been ideal, I was thinking about something like that while I was rubbing my finger all over the tank and making a mess of it. I would have had a stroke trying to put a flat sticker on there haha although I've seen videos of wraps on tanks and they seem to make it work somehow 👍

    Looking good Glyn, it’s the final touches that make it special, as you say don’t second guess a creative idea, just go with it and then work out how to get what you visualise, all the best buddy 👍

    @davidrawlings3460 7 месяцев назад +1

    Good work,I do like my decals. I was shaking my head about the first front mudguard sticker the clear film on it just looked wrong. Then you did the tank one and I thought that would be much better on the mudguard and you thought exactly the same. Great minds and all that lol.

    • @GlynOC
      @GlynOC  7 месяцев назад +1

      Yes, I'm glad I got rid of that, it was a bit Fisher Price haha. I've got one left so might put it on my toolbox or something, or a guitar maybe. Thanks for watching again David 🙏

    @jez6208 7 месяцев назад +1

    Christ Glyn. I'd make a complete arse of that! I haven't remotely got the patience. I tried to cover over a couple of the graphics on my Signals and couldn't get them to go around all the curves. They all bunched up. After 20 minutes of pissing around, I gave up in a huff! 😂

    • @GlynOC
      @GlynOC  7 месяцев назад +1

      I deliberately chose those so it would be simple, I'd have failed with something flat like the signals stickers for sure. The new Himalayan has some simple looking chunk shapes going on too. I love the signals bikes, tempting to copy it for my Classic but it has its own path.....

  • @WyreForestBiker
    @WyreForestBiker 7 месяцев назад

    Normally hate stickers of any sort but those suit the whole vibe of the bike really well Glynn. 👍
    I worked in the car trade in the 80's and 90's and I lost count of the number of pin stripes and fade out panels I fitted, especially to Mini Metro's !! Our garage became known for them and we had people asking us to fit them to their own cars , I must have done hundreds over the years.

    • @GlynOC
      @GlynOC  7 месяцев назад

      Thanks very much 👍 At least Metros were nice and flat 😊 Wish I'd kept mine now 👍 Hope you'll be doing a video soon, I know it's not really the month for exploring on a bike haha

    those graphics and off-road Tyres give it a bit of a early 2000's Triumph Tiger vibe.

    Phew busy day. Been out all day. Ready for bed.
    Was thinking that stickers, will spoil the looks. But no! Defo added a vibe. No an easy curverture to fit too.
    Maybe add the flyscreen?
    Best regards your Scottish brother.😊

    • @GlynOC
      @GlynOC  7 месяцев назад

      If you did them in black on bumble he'd look like a Tiger, or a Bee even, yes that would make more sense - Bumble, doh 🐝 You've just reminded me about flyscreens, I had put some thought into them but had put it off whilst waiting for the rest of the bike to finish. More Meteor stuff next, filming tomorrow 🐝 Hope you had a great day out, Glyn

    Cheers Glyn, great how to movie. Also how do you rate tank rack? Do you think it would be secure with small bag attached? Thinking of getting one for my Classic 350.

    • @GlynOC
      @GlynOC  7 месяцев назад

      Thank you! It's quite secure but I don't think I'd trust it with more than my sandwiches. I've seen some natty tank bag things from India that look secure and fitting with the period look, I might try one of those. I think Bruce, Coastrider Scotland has secured that rack more firmly but he has completely painted his tank @coastriderscotland
