Mock UP! I've taken the frame to be powder coated. I chose RAL 3015 Hellrosa in their "Matt"- which is more like a satin finish. Looking forward to getting it back. In the mean time, I've mocked up the bike with the graphics.
I had some phrases translated into Japanese by a translator- I asked him to translate not literally, but to come up with reasonable phrases that make sense in Japanese:
この自転車を盗むな!
Do not steal this bike!
僕の自転車です
This is my bike.
For ‘fast and loose’ I think maybe
なんとかなる
Means basically ‘it’ll work out somehow’
“Life is good”
I think something like
生きるのは素晴らしいね
Alternatively another angle could be
花鳥風月
Which are literally characters to ‘flower, bird, wind, moon’ and refers to the beauty of everything in nature
Or just
人生良好 which is “life good” but is a bit vague. I’ve found it in hanging calligraphy wall scrolls though so maybe people would get it

So I've chosen a few of these for mine.
