I'll be in one for the tracky. I'm with Mick on the Carbon Fibre, it looks a bit tacky when it aint real.

How about having the kuda man and KSRC without a background for those with tank protectors like mine below (which also come in green 8) ) and anywhere else you wanted to stick it :lol:

Last lot i've come up with

New leather background. I made it so the stitching almost looks legit through the graphics
Image

Another but more green.
Image

No color for those with bikes hard to match (have also done one of these with blue kuda)
Image

Flame background instead of leather (also done this without colour)

keen as mustard if you can do the clear dome rubbery overlay . what about clear dome plastic with black outline and smoke effect so that the bikes colour comes through to ensure it matches. i think Keilti does something like this ;)

Guys I have been doing some investigation & Russ the clear bike colour ones are out as the original self adhesive vinyl is white & it may be harder to get the clear resin done without ordering a few hundred, It turns out to be quite complicated to do such a large surface as most doming is smaller than a 50c piece.
I will keep looking at options but we really don't want these to be an expensive product so don't be upset if it ends up being just a thick double laminated self adhesive tank pad ;)

What the heck if it doesn't go with the bike colour. My GPX750 id black/grey but I want one with the carbon fibre look. :shock:

If the flame in Blue matched the 07 ZX10 I might be interested in one.

I've been thinkin of getting one so I'll get whatever ends up being decided upon. (But blue flame sounds good as my bike's blue, but if only green gets made it'll match the Kuda stickers on Suzis bum. :kuda: :) )
