Decided I'd lend you a quick hand. Took a crappy image and added up to it. Spend about 5 minutes max so it isn't a master piece.

Think that overcomes the boredom just by accenting the bike shroud shape. Hope it helps.

Here is the image I used, and then I made the slight adjustment towards the bottom left in order to make it look a little more flashy.

MUCH better. Just fix the bottom bolt hole, add some variation to the tone of the shading, maybe take the left hand middle highlights up a little bit. Looks kind of cartoonish somehow.

Very nice improvement.

Some skinning of my own. Showing it on my model so people can't rip it.
