    Any sources for decals?

    Anyone have a source for the red "S" on the tailsection of the 1000S? I see its no longer available per BikeBandit's drawing. I'm hoping that someone found a signmaker or something where they've had decals like this one made.
    I'd like to replace the chrome Suzuki emblems with a simple, red S.
    Thanks,

    Common sense has become so uncommon that I consider it a super power.


    Present Stable includes:
    '74 GT750 Resto-mod I've owned since '79
    '83 GS1100E (The best E I've ever enjoyed, Joe Nardy's former bike)
    '82 GS1100G Resto project

      Thanks alot! Just what I was looking for. I didn't find it on Tapework's website but called and found out they can make it to any size and for a reasonable price.

              You can check locally, too. Any sign maker can make you some, either to clear-in or surface mount. I have chrome flaming Suzuki "S"s on my tank; looks good. Got them on ebay....

                Does anyone have a source for a set of 1980 GS1000E decals? Neither of the above links appear to list them? I'm restoring a "one owner/abuser" 8 valve GS1000E, it was blue, but I want to paint it the other OEM color for 1980, black, with OEM decals. The 1978/79 decals are entirely different. Cheers, Terry.

                    Thanks mate, I'll see if I can find some pics, in the meantime, do you have any pics of your work on other bikes? Cheers, Terry.

                      I just got back into bikes about 2 months ago. I dont do wraps, just printed and cut vinyl decals. Check my sig and thats the link to the would-be site Im working on. This should give you an idea of what the decals would look like. They are in 600dpi and on 5 year vinyl and with a UV/scratch coat can last up to 10 years. I was using my Camera phone so the quality is so so...


                      The printer I use can print on Chrome and Gold foils. I havent had a call for the Gold so I only carry Chrome. Most of my work is in paintball related things since I played for 10 years. I have some work on vehicles but I really didnt start taking pics at first.

                        Thanks mate, I've got the original brochure for my bike out in my garage, I'll see if I can scan it and post the pics. Cheers, Terry.
