I have done it to my golf cart, and was actually thinking about doung it to my tw. It is not that difficult, but it is very time consuming. The hardest thing to do is curves b/c the material wants to crease. You often times half to cut seperate pieces to fit the rounded parts. When cutting pieces do rounded waves b/c it makes the cut less noticeable. If you decide to do it make sure to post pics.   Shane

Don't like it. You should try to be visible on the road not blend in with the backround.

Don't wear camo, don't wear black.
You can see the light in the strangest of places if you look at it right

Camo is a nightmare for us in Oz.

On a single afternoon we get so far away from the nearest human... if something does go wrong we really need to be seen as easily as possible... Seems the rescue crews here always find the vehicle and as long as you are not a total twat and stay with the vehicle, I presume they find the rider too... But camo... ouch. Lost int eh desert. Not good.

love the camo look, I may be going with a desert tan on mine (I'm in middle tn). I disagree with some of the comments regarding the camo.

I'd rather have my bike blend in with the environment so if I get separated from it because of God knows what, the cager will see my bright neon helmet and jacket and dodge me and not my bright bike.

Who knows how it all will turn out in ANY event but I want to be seen before my bike as people can't drive anyway around here

If you are a hunter like Ronnydog, a stealth camper, or just like it because it it cool, nothing wrong with that. I would go with it if I didn't spend so much in in relative isolation in the middle of the desert. Being seen there is a good thing. I do love the look though...

For hunting, orange camo should work just as well, and be visible to rescuers or cage drivers.
