This is a bit of a teaser.

The pictures of the blue in the sun I have seen look nice but I don't like the large decal.
The decal is probably under the clear-coat so it wont be easy to remove.

Clearly Imperial Blue is the best color.

Do they have a taillight/turn or taillight/turn/brake LED option for the back?

Is the grey RS sticker under the clearcoat or on top of the clearcoat?

I installed the turn/brake led set in back. The ezCan brake control options work, however you cannot use for tail lights. The tail light intensity must be set to 0% and the brake light intensity set to 100%. The leds do not support any dimming.

The R1250RS grey sticker on the fairings and the Exclusive sticker on the rear panels are on top. You can feel the edges with your fingernails.

Even if it's under the clear you can still feel it with your fingernail but it will not be a sharp edge.
Thanks for the replies.

Pete, where in Indiana do you live?
We were in Indiana 2 weeks ago on our way to Kentucky.
There's a nice tree covered curvy section of hwy 150 starting at Shoals.

Near Bloomington. I like 450 north of Shoals better.

Looking at the map 450 appears to be a fun road.
