Need advice on the "showa" decal folks

[yamatopdog]

Hi folks, trying to get a complete kit made here for the white and black tri-z's.

I found three old tri-z's in my pop's barn of vintage machines today. There is a decal on the front LEFT fork that has all kinds of writing on it and is rectangular in shape. It is on a yellow tri-z. Is this the SHOWA decal?

Ill check back in 30 min. hopeuflly someone can answer this one quickly...

thanks in advance!

I am not 100% sure, but I think the Showa Decals were the same on all 3 models. I know my 86 had one, but I didnt study it that well, and it ended up getting stripped off during the restore.

Also, can anyone verify if the choke settings were the same between the 86 (on the headlight) and the 85, and 851/2s (on the airbox cover)

Where is that first shifter decal located... i made that last week for someone and put it on my ebay store... i dont see that in my fiche finder...

Can someone e-mail me either a vertical or horizontal dimension of the energy induction decal? Neil sent me a picture but i need a dimension of either axis doesnt matter which, also need a dimension on either axis for the choke decal(s)

thanks
Jared

nevermind i get it now, they both go on the headlight... gotcha...

Well now i have everything, i have the induction decals, both labels for the headlgihts, the SHOWA decal, all the warning decals for under the seat, the decal behind the seat for the 85 models, as well as the rest of the kit.... YES BOYS AND GIRLS WE ARE IN BUSINESS....no pun intended

:D

I'll get those for you....give me 5 minutes!

okay thanks

I guess both the decals on the headlight are the same size, as I have the shifting pattern decal already, so i really just need the energy induction decal dimension

Length: 2 and 1/4 inches long
Height: 1 and 1/4 inches high

The Boost Bottle Decal (energy induction):

Length: 1 and 1/2 inches long
Height: 1 and 1/4 inches high

you can either just type in the address, or use the image source code. If you have the sticker on your comp, you can always just add the attachment to your post. You do this by hitting "Manage Attachments" below

[yamatopdog]

I just emailed you

Jared

All you have to do is type the complete url, and put [img@] before it and [/img@] after it. Do not include the @. I had to put that in there to keep it from trying to dispaly a photo in this post.
