To decal or not to decal?

Great, the poll is spilt into about even thirds. Now what,...Hmmm.

Tim-thanks, Looking forward to the bash. I'll be comming up first (on tuesday) and Kim will be comming up Thursday night (with the Kids). I can't wait.

Revolution- That paint job is SICK. I love it. I bet you paid a pretty penny for the job.

Frisbee-Nice bike,..but can you turn it around in a parking lot?? Just joshing ya.


Guys you've given me a bit to think about. Here's the deal. The shop that is doing the painting told me the deal. $750 if I let him "do his thing" or $1200 if I wanted to be a yankee D**K. After I assured him I was a good ol southern country boy, we settled.

I figure $750 for a top shelf base/clear flame job ain't too bad. What do y'all think?.

As far as the SEVEN stickers. I think I'll go naked, though the kanji on the hump is an idea.

I'll post pics when the job is finished.

We'll see

Thanks heavy

JOhn-THat would be cool. THe guy did state, "If I have to break out the airbrush it will be anouther couple hundred." I'll think I'll pass on that.

Check out 1320busa . His has a decal wrap on most of the bike with real flame on it . It looks sweet!

Well, the plastic is off to the painters and the bike is off to the shop.

She's being "race prep'ed" what ever that means. Basically, drilling the drain plug, flushing the radiator and running water and "water wetter". I'm also having the valves checked/adjusted, figure it's about due.

Question: The tech said that the busa will run cooler with plain water, any truth to that??


I just hope she is in good hands.

Fingers crossed,

Chris

Flaming Kanji sounds good to me too.

Chris, I think the flames will look great with the kanji on both sides like stock, with the flames flowing around the kanji.  looking forward to seeing you and Kim at the bash.  <br><br>Tim
