They are all good but nothing really stands out as spectacular in my opinion.

This one sitting on the "H" of your Honda emblem would look cool methinks.

Here's another with a lot of possibilities.

This lovely laying across the top of the Honda emblem has my vote. She's a nice girl, doesn't talk too much, and loves to ride naked!

That might look real nice especially if the Honda Logo was slid back some.

I think it was Stephanie Seymore who once said "put clothes on me and I feel sad" or something like that :lol: :lol: :lol:
