Not bad suggestions Telesque.

What kinds of leather accessories would you want with a TMW logo on them? (bike accessories only please...haha)

For new gold and above site supporters, I'm giving out a free TMW mutlimedia CD with free shipping.

I'd pay $15 or $20 or so for a TMW t-shirt and wear it proudly. Other bikers would see it and ask what's up and before you knew it you'd have the most popular website in the world. Ok, maybe not, but I bet you could make $5 or $10 per shirt and help pay for some bandwidth.

Well, you could put the TMW logo on just about anything, really, I guess.

I've seen a variety of his (Er, I forget his name now) work on eBay. He makes stuff from floorboard fringes, to simple 'accents' for forks/master cylinders which basically consist of a studded piece of leather cut to fit whatever it is you want to wrap it around. I've actually been meaning to send him an e-mail asking if he'd be willing to make any custom piece/design that I come up with, in case I get any nifty ideas in the future.

Maybe you could make magnets that people could put on there gas tank/fender/fridge.

If you made a semi-transparent sticker, I'm stick one on the front of my windshield below the metal support, but above the headlight, down where I don't need to see anything. Or maybe I could stick it right on the headlight, and project a TMW/'Bat signal' out at oncoming traffic. Hah!

I know lots of bikers who like to get all 'pinned up' (Or are those just punk kids who wear biker jackets?). Maybe you should put the TMW logo on some pins and hand 'em out.

I've usually got lots of ideas about all sorts of things if you want any more.

Yeah! Fridge magnets! I love refrigerator magnets. Yes, I'm serious. And I want a t-shirt too. And a sticker.

Patches would be a good idea as well.

I just recently got a couple of GS Resources patches (one of the site members did up the design, took orders and had them made up)

(I have to thank Gene for directing me to that site last year. It's been a big help to me.)

The amount of interest that was there for the patches made it worthwhile to do, and I'm sure you would get the same interest here. I would likely buy at least three patches (gotta have one for each jacket)

Why not throw out a design idea and see how many people would be interested - if there's enough interest, cost/patch would be minimal ( I paid $13C for my three GSR patches, and that was shipped from Texas)

Here's a link to the thread in the GSR forum with a photo of the Patches - I have the blue ones

Mike, I have the name and contact info of a Canadian company that made a bunch of patches for me about a year and a half ago. let me know if you are interested.

Mike.

I would certainly be interested in a couple of roughly 12" long WWW.TOTALMOTORCYCLE.COM decals, to go on the plastics under the seat, when I finally get around to doing my full test, and respraying keyokes FZ (which I've half bought at the moment). but I've not decided on colour yet....

Heck, maybe you could get some bumper stickers for the part-time cagers.

"My other car is a motorcycle." or "I turn corners on two wheels." with www.totalmotorcycle.com under it.

I love my bike, but I must admit.. the way it performs in three feet of snow is less than admirable.

Wow, this is great!

What awesome ideas!!

I will have to spend some serious time this week looking into who can do all this great stuff for us.

Owen - Yes, PM me the company plz.

Mike.

also, you could start a trend of flipflops, with the R1 logo on them, and the word Squid emblazened across the strap

Oh man! If there's any good artists out there, you should have a shirt made up that has the TMW Url across the top, and then like, a bunch of different biker types (maybe 9? 3x3 square?) like

The Harley Rider
The Squid
The Super-Sport Beginner (who would look as if he had just hit a tree, of course)
The 1%er
The Chromosexual
etc, etc,

And then something like 'Everyone welcome' or something on the bottom.

That'd be awesome!
