Okay, so it took a while. Stupid summer classes. I own a small screen printing business, where we create and print all of our shirts by hand. Mopedman asked me to try and put something together for the site, so I've been working on it.
This is a mock up. Mopedman asked me to do it so he gets the final say on what design is chosen, but I thought I'd post it so that other people could take a look and weigh in with their opinions. No hard feelings if you don't like it.
I downloaded the Honda logo font, and incorporated the Spree logo from an '86 (I think). I thought it looked kind of boring with a normal font. You can check out my t-shirt website at: www.tealtown.etsy.com
We do custom stuff like this for individuals/business so if you ever want a shirt for anything let me know.
A sticker would be nice too, to stick on my Spree.
1985 Honda Gyro S (project bike, work in progress!)
1984 Honda Spree - Bought May 30, 2008 with 810.8 miles on it. (Sold with ~1600mi)
Others owned/rode/sold: '86 Helix trike, '07 Vino 125, '88 Elite 250
For the gentlemen:
Black with White print
White with Black print
Gray with Black print
For the ladies:

These are Gildan Ultra-cotton 100% cotton shirts, which means they are really good quality. I wear them all the time.
As for stickers, I actually do have a sticker machine. I'll play around with it and see what I can do. I've never sprayed them with water to see how they hold up, so I'll experiment with that and get back to you guys.
Proabably shouldn't be riding your baby in the rain, anyways.
I like the cutaway design. When people think old Honda scooter, its either the Cub or Spree that comes to mind. The cutway is enough to show its not a Cub. The shirt will get them thinking about whats inside.
If you thinking are doing more Honda scooters - Gyro, and Urban Express are shirts I'd also like to see, just like those 80's Hondas!

Yeah I do see your points, but look at this - I've never been an outboard guy before, but ever since seeing that photo of your racing engine undressed I've been saying *D***" that outboard stuff is cool! Show me a Mercury cover, and I'd say yeah, sure I've seen *that* before! Give the public some guts and see what happens.
