Hi
I was surfing around ebay and found some decal sheets for the NC700 and.... well I got inspiration to make my own decals :)
After some work with the vinyl cutter and applying the decals here is the result.

The orange color is not right on the photos, the neon light in the garage is messing with the colors. In daylight the orange color is nice bright and clear.

What do you think?

Looks good. Most importantly do you like it? I'd say you probably do since your sharing photos.

That's really superb work. How did you get the design cut out?

It looks like something they'd do for a factory special edition.
 
Nice! Great job. Kinda reminds me a little of the 2004 ninja 250 decal scheme.
 
Thanks for your comments!
I am really happy with the result, and yes I like it, but it is always interesting to hear other people opinion.
The black edition i very... black :) and I have been looking for a way to add some colors.
@L.B.S do you really think my NC700X looks like a old Kawa? :D :D well I see the equality.

I made the decals on a cheap vinyl cutter.

Now the question is will this be a GO or NO GO? http://thumbs2.ebaystatic.com/d/l225/pict/181317742821_1.jpg
Don't know if it will be "too much" with the orange rim stickers, but I think I can make some thing like that.
An other option is to add some text inside the rim.

Haha I surely meant no offense if it was received that way! :eek: ;)

"What! An old Kawasaki! :eek: Why I oughtta...!" :mad: lol lol

Basically it was just the "X" in the same relative position, and the orange-ish striping trailing along the all black coloured bodywork at a jaunty angle. For the record I always liked the 250 and 500 Kawasakis :)

The wheel stripes do look kind of neat, but IMHO might be a little too "busy" along with the rest, if that translates.

I think your bike looks very classy and tastefully smart with the package you have put on it now. Very OEM, in a good way. But adding the wheel pinstripes definitely take it away from a stock look.
 
Ha ha ups did i say old Kawa... I mean classic Kawa :eek:

I think you are right about the rim stribes.... I dont want i to look like a "tivoli", so is is at no go.
