He's altering the colors to suit my taste but I'm still sticking with a burgandy, gold, and black with some variations on the tints. We have a few ideas we've been kicking around thats different and a little off the beaten path but will still be a Z1 when done. We had the chance to spend a whole day together working on his front end swap and BS about a lot of things. The airbrush work on his bike is no less than amazing so I'm confident he'll get mine the way I want. In talking, he's going to start offering up his services so if anyone is interested, I highly suggest you give him a shot! I'm confident you wont be disappointed.
Again, Thanks Man!

What did I tell you guys. :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:
Now, get your happy ass on that green bike and get you some well deserved seat time!

Thanks Guys I cant wait to get this done not because I am tired of doing it but I get excited when
it gets to this stage going to town today and push my stencil guy around a little to get my kz1000 side cover stencils

Its frog folly weekend and their shop sponsors all the graphics they made over 100 signs and other stuff so he has been a walking dead man from all the hours he is putting in. They hired a graphic artist but her learning curve hasnt helped lol

The guy who made my tank decals (before I came up with spray chrome) scanned my side cover emblem and
has been making me side cover decals for 6 months and hasnt finished them because getting the chrome tape on the printed tape is a pita so when I told him I just needed em laid out so he could just use paint mask and cut them he was like oh ok that I can do LOL

originally I took him my emblem and told him I needed KZ1000 KZ1075 KZ1260 cut not realizing
how much design time would be involved

once he gets the KZ1000 set up I am still gonna get decals made just to have around and sell a few
I'm putting together a website to sell stickers leftover parts spray chrome paint etc...
