Learn to save it with the bake brake is the first rule.

Don't! :toothy5:

I only say that cause I'm too weary and scared to attempt to do it myself, too much of a *****!

:respeck: to those who can I say!

Its a tough one this to be honest. Yamaha main agents are going to be able to supply you (expensive), forget Ebay they are silly money as well. My honest oppinion is go to a local sign writer and get them to copy a design or do you a customer job. Sounds expensive but compared to genuine decals not really. At least a sign writer will use a better material than the original ones.

Genuine decals are going to cost you about �150 a setv (ball park figure). They are guaranteed to peel off as well.

Would you consider a 10" large Yamaha roundal logo? I did mine and that was nice, I just chose the wrong colour for my bike.

WOW thats alot of money!! I have seen a few pics of people with a large round logo, I probably would be interested in that! so far each side has alternate parts of the decals missing haha.

was thinking of getting a monster energy theme going however i dont think it would suit the big front panels, so yea the big logo would look great where can i get some?

thanks alot. Iain

Monster decals dont look bad at all on the XT, a new guy on here has some and the bike looks superb. Link below to where I got mine and a photo of them fitted to my bike. As I say I got the wrong colour, I should have got white. In fact I may order them later!

Link to supplier - �5.99 for the pair plus postage.

Last year I went to the dealers to get a price for a full set of plastics as I fancied a change of colour, the plastics were �200 but the decals were just over �300. How crazy is that.
