Naked. These guys aren't paying me to run their stickers. The only sticker I would run is Surflex since they gave me a couple hundred worth of spare parts for my slipper clutch but they didn't send any stickers, so what do you do?

No Stickers>>>ever!!!!!

sorry, "sponser" stickers are USUALLY used for posing to look raceresque/sponsered unless you are actually getting paid to wear them. (I'm only assuming you're not otherwise you wouldn't be asking this question about their fashionibility)
also, I feel you are actually doing a disservice to sponsered riders by using them. If everybody rode around giving free advertising space to these companies then they'd have no reason to actually hook up people who get exposure for their products by competing and winning races and displaying their affiliation proudly.
This has been my philosophy since I raced mountain bikes and snowboards over a decade ago. I'd even take off or cover the product names that came on my gear when possible unless the company did something special for me. I don't wear designer label clothes ($20 for a simple tee shirt with a huge Nike logo?) and I hate logos, some people are walking billboards and don't know it.
that's my self rightous rant for the day, flame away...
nice bike naked though...

Stickers will look cooler to everyday joe. Naked looks better to other SM dudes.

Go naked

I only run stickers for product I get 100% free

Back in the old days I worked in a shop and we had a this one young struggeling road racer in our service dept. I received some Visa stickers for our door (you know the kind that states you take Visa at the dealership) He talked me out of them and ran them on his GSX-R, He said Visa was the only company that helped his racing effort.
