Custom decals anyone?

Didn't one of our members make custom vinyl stickers? IIRC for the Gio Beast? I'm kinda thinking of having blue vinyl decals made that say "DIRT RAT" for my project bike. Maybe placed on the side panels...

You mean the decals I haven't installed yet? :oops: I keep forgetting to install them when it's clean, and it doesn't stay that way for long.

It was our good friend waynev.

The Beast decals look great, really break up the otherwise totally orange body on my Beasty. On a side note, just noticed from the picture that you managed to get your countershaft cover to fit? Dirt Rat is not looking so ratty anymore

Thank you Wayne!

After my question/post I had a minute to search the ATV forum and found your custom logo thread. I watched your video and was appreciative of your taking the time to make the stickers for your fellow CR's and make the video as well.

I'll take some measurements.

Thank you

Thanks for the compliment, MIC. It took some grinding and cutting but I did get the cover to fit perfectly. The Dirt Rat is really coming along!

Wayne, I like the bottom right logo. Can I get it 6 inches long, in Honda blue, like my seat and gaiters? I'll PM you with my address so you can tell me how much I'll owe you.

Thank you very much!

Ok, those are just the straight up text, i'll massage it a bit to make it look even better, so to be 100% sure it is the bottom right one that you want as below.

That is why i had to confirm, seemed like an odd pick to me on that one.

Practice, lots of practice, i should be able to get it cut within the next few days, since my process cuts out the vinyl sheet and then you weed out the lettering you can see how all those little cutouts may aid in your legs rubbing them off, i'll see if i can find some thicker clear vinyl that can go over the blue lettering that i cut out to protect them.
