    Custom Decals?

    I am repainting my 1100E this year and would like to get some custom decals to work with the new paint. I would like the factory font/style/size of decals, just in non-standard colors. I see lots of people are recommending Diablo Cycle but they seem to only do OEM replacements. Who are people using these days for non-OEM decals?


    Thanks,

    Since decals were mainly for stock bikes and restorations, you might be better off contacting a custom painter that can stripe them by hand or airbrush them. Might need to get a set of stock decals for the pattern, then mix your color to your heart's content.

      Did you ask Diablo if they could do OEM decals in different colors. I would think that would be quite easy for them.

          Brian at bdesigns.com did a custom pair of lettering for the fairing on my 750EF. I'm sure he'd be glad.to run a set in a different colour for you. He didn't even charge for set up and had them to my door in less than 2 weeks.

            I haven't yet, was hoping for some forum member experiences first. I will send them an email to see if they can switch things up.

            That sounds great, I will contact him and see what he can do.

              I've used this guy's services for my bass boat and for my truck. Iguana Grafix does great, high quality work and his turnaround time is very quick. Tell him Rudy sent you. The guy's name is Darryl Brooks.

                  Sorry. My error. Try bdesigns.ca not .com. Great guy to deal with.
