I'm interested in putting decals on my bike... picking it up on 1st March 2010. Seen the one in the recent Fury of the month competition and I like it. But as my bike is Wave Blue will probably go for a chrome or subtle blue. Anyone got any suggestions on material and sizes ? What about the Mylar material (DCG Customs) ?

I've got some decals on my bike until I can afford a paint job, they are from Cycle graphics, here is a pic of the final product... I have a silver fury, but you get the point... Brought it to my Honda dealership and they could hardly tell that it was a decal till they stuck their face about onto my gas tank...

Not too shabby... they look okay! The good thing about decals is you can try out a look and if you change your mind you can peel them off. Eventually going for a design and look that you are comfortable with before burning a hole in your pocket.

It's a speedo by Webslinger

Also, my decals are are electrostatic, no glues... also put on with a blow dryer, easy only took 1 hour or so with some minor adjustments and some beers and some encouragement from Tony_Fury and etc...

I used those decals so I wouldn't mess up the stock paint job and make it harder for my painter to customize it in the future.

I saw the decals in your photo album... looking good! Make sure you post some pics once you get them on your bike. Hmmm, makes me want to switch up a little bit... lol
