This guy did a great job on the match I think! I had it about 80% wire wheeled and blasted. 30 bucks is what he charged:lock: Just installed my repro stickers off ebay. They were stated to be for the 85. I had a hard time finding any for the 86? Did not know they were different?? Anyway..gonna wait till it warms up a bit to get it all back together. Oh ya...anyone know where I could get the decal for the carrier?? http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/oo321/andyatc70/th_250rswingerdone_zpsfe98143d.jpg (http://s388.photobucket.com/albums/oo321/andyatc70/?action=view&current=250rswingerdone_zpsfe98143d.jpg) The blue has since darkened in color..looks great! The photo was right after install.....a bit wet underneath still. I used the soapy water install instead of taping or all or nothing...lol

Windex works really good as well for sticker application. The ammonia evaporates a little faster than water. I work for Cal Fire and all the mechanics use the windex method to apply all the engine stickers. But yours looks great just though id chime in

Ya I know there are many places and people who could reproduce them. It just was not a huge priority being that this bike is my rider and time was of the essence, as well a the 13.00 these cost...lol.... Bruce does some very nice stuff. I seen it at TF12 after ripping around on his mini tiger lol.....thanks buddy...... I would definitely go to him if I were to do a full resto ........
