30 Sep 2020 10:27
Eehh Hey -oop chaps (n chapesses) !!
R egarding my KZ750 LTD tank decal inquiry a week or so ago . Seems impossible to find original decals or any Decal shop that does them . Now resigned to try my hand at replicating them meself .
SO.... THIS IS WOT I NEEDZ ........if anyone still has an original decalled tank for 80-81 KZ750 LTD (ebony black double gold striped ) could please give width and spacing sizes of the gold double bands (mm's or inch fractions is good ).
Wetting meself in eager anticipation here . cheers guys (n guyesses)
Ps attached file is not my tank but only for reference

That's an easy patter to replicate with pinstripe tape. 3M brand is very good. The stripes come in various sizes including 1/16", 1/18", 3/16", 1/4" widths. Pick your poison.

Here is a photo of another tank I did (photos in your other thread of my KZ.) This one is a GS550 tank. The stripes may be the wrong width for your use but think you get the idea. Each stripe was a separate part. Each roll contains 40' of tape so you got lots of extra to practice.
