Far to jaggy to be worth anything. The logo's have had their aspect ratio changed and look oddly shaped and some still have the background color from which you cut the logo from. Are they really considered graphics because all I see is a black line on the back fender and a 50/50 split of black/blue on shrouds but the rest is all template and logo's.

I'm not mad, I was giving you things to fix. You asked for opinions and there mine are with specifically what I don't like about it.

It looks like you just stuck a bunch of stickers on a blank bike. Try to incorporate a design that goes behind the logos. Spend more time on your logos, too. They all look really low res.

We all start somewhere, at least you're a step ahead of a lot of users who don't even know how to use photoshop.

Also, I would try to use a more contemporary font for the numbers.
