The graphics I do are essentially sign-writing, so it's one colour cut at a time and then laid on top of each other. Most multi-colour signs on vans and sign-boards are done in this way.

I made a 3-colour (3-layer +1 clear) rad decal for my KTM as well as decal stacks for the fenders, and they were quite effective. Ideally, your logo would be best done on a vinyl printing machine where the colours are all printed on a single sheet (much like an ink-jet printer), but that would be expensive for small runs.

If I did it, it would be the same as for Gerhard - convert the pic to vector format, then cut the layers, place the upper layers on top of the base layer, and finally apply the transfer paper.

I can do you a sample if you like.

Only if it's not too much trouble, as big as you can do ideally to cover the tank side panels without interfering with the cut holes in them.

Hey Dan - fancy making me a rallye fairing for my BMW?!

Would the logo not be better as a single colour as the current forum stickers and in different single colours.
The logo you asked for Capt would not show up too much on say a red bike or a white bike?????


Dan, can you convert almost any files to vector, i used to used "vector magic" (i think it was called) which was a free site but now charges

Capt: message sent to your hotmail address.

Storm: sounds like a biggish job or a winter project! What's your starting point and is there nothing out there to suit?

Meach: Single colour would be simpler for me, however the sticker could have a background. I've converted BMP and JPG files to vector, so I guess any interchangeable format will work. Because you print a colour per layer, you need to reduce the colours in the pic first (if necessary), but apart from that, I guess anything goes...

XTnewbie: Sorry to hijack your thread!

Yeah Meach, I am not bothered about the colour, my idea is just to have that logo as a new tank sticker, any colour possible. But now I understand it's impossible cause Ranni's done a runner and he was the one that designed we only have that small size and nothing else.

Cheers

Well, Touratech make a rallye fairing, but it's over a grand...

I'm looking to set the bike up with a view to entering some dusk till dawn type events and train on over the winter with a view to entering some rallyes next year.

Surely Dan could save that as bitmap and convert to vector. Then it would be possible to have any size ????

Capt, I didn't say it was impossible, just said that it would have made my job easier if you had a bigger version! I'll see what I can do this evening and let you know how I get on. The layers will be "black", "white", "red" and "background". So you will be able to choose what you want for any of them, and optionally have no background.

I really appreciate your help DanG, thanks
