    Question photoshop experts RSV4 with RSV tail

    Love the look of the RSV4, well mostly, still cant get over that short tail.

    Well I'm no expert with photoshop, total newb really, but I did start playing around with the gimp photo editor last night, just to see what I could get it to look like and this is it.

    Still a bit ruff where it blends into the frame and the underneath of the tank, plus the tail is maybe now a little bit long.

    Couldn't find a good side view of a black rsv to cut the tail from, so it has a white factory tail.

    Anyway have a look, critic away, hopefully an expert will do a good one of these, as I think it look pretty good.

    I don't like it. I think they have done an awesome job with the RSV4 tail! It makes the bike a bit smaller, but it is very sleek. Just my opinion.

    Looks good. I agree on the short tail. Looks OK in the picture, but looks stupid when someone is on it. IMHO.

    Should change the nose fairing to an RSV as well! IMO the front upper fairing is UGLY.

    There will be none close enough to even notice the color of the leather that covers my ass.
