My bike is now complete, :ride: having had it's decals added last week. I ordered these from the States, but as they cannot send outside the States I had to find a way to get them here.

Alucard Draken kindly offered to get them for me via his sister in California. So thanks mate and I have some pix. :niceone:
Excuse the poor quality as they were taken on my phone as the Mrs is away with the digicam.

Pic 1 is before (obviously)
The others completed.
Whaddaya reckon? :ride:

Yes I fitted myself tho they can be a little tricky and the vinyl strips were barely long enough giving little tolerance, and so placement was extremely slow and the tank was difficult due to a unusual curves on it. Worth it in the end.

Bike was professionally painted tho

Wow, they look pretty good, I looked at getting some of those but don't think they had a F3 listed or if they did they didnt have a photo, was looking at silver on black background. Hmmm, might still be worth another look!!
