Below is from Mr. G's post. (I just made it a poll.)
The original topic.

What ya reckon? The black is the "empty space"

first idea

or 'on the road'

or 'on the road' (inverted)

(Comment: The images are square, but I'm assuming the actual logo's will be round. Thomas)

the first one, it has more impact

the road one is where people will say ''what does the 'S' signify'', and I'd reply ''Steam''.

mind you, it won't matter what I think if I let the bike go.

That is the one issue I can see. Is it possible to come up with one sticker color that will work on any bike color?
I voted for #2 but I'm thinking we may need a white version for dark bikes and a black version for light bikes.

Or pick a design and have both made, you get/buy one of each and the more contrasty one goes on your bike,
the other one can go on your cage... 'My other car is a TDM'

If the offer is that good I can understand.... but you can always use part of the profit to buy a Mk1.
I think Mr. G has one he will let go reasonable.
