    Where to buy graphics kits?

    Hello all, my wonderful wife got me some new black plastics for my 98 kx250, but for the life of me I can't seem to find any graphics kits aside from the generic retro style ones. Is there any good websites you can recommend for some kits?

    Thanks

    problem is most companies have stopped making kits for these models, try ceet, they do some older stuff

    There is a guy on Trademe under the name of SHAVO that is a graphic designer selling various graphic kits. I think he also cretaes them to order. If you search for Kawasaki Vinyl Sticker you should be able to contact him to create a custom sticker.

    Just make sure that where-ever you get stickers from, that they have the right grade of adhesive. Standard hi-performance vinyls (such as what you would see on painted surfaces) won't stick effectively on some plastics
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    Yea, I do cut decals etc. Can't do the fancy print effects tho.
    As far as adhesive goes - there is a grade of vinyl/adhesive specially made to stick to 'oily' plastics such as some fuel tanks, wheelie bins etc. The decal maker would be best to have the tank/whatever so that they can check what works best.

    I have tried ceet and tapeworks and have nothing. I have also tried some local guys online such as dirtbike.co.nz and superior motorcycle. I pm'd DingDong and he is a custom guy needing pics and dimensions. I can work with him more to find out how to take dimensions etc and what he needs, but that will take some time. I Found the guy on trademe, and will try to find out from him as well about the dimensions. Is it just overall width and height of the shrouds? Thats all I really need is the radiator decals. I can put little logos on the rest easy enough I suppose. Thanks again for the response I appreciate it.

    Anyone else have any ideas? I have exhausted all avenues I know of. Even Superior motorcycle the supposed dealer of Kawasaki couldn't really help me. Is there maybe newer graphics I can go with say the 01 or 03 model KX250? Or is the shroud dimensions way off? I just want to make my bike look nice again
