    Just do it yourself, but MAKE SURE you have a heat gun handy and some type of squeegy tool. Credit card wrapped in a papertowel works. Don't worry about how well it comes out... you can't see blemishes from 50 ft away and besides... its just a matter of time until you crash and have to redo it.

    If you need some red numbers I have some "2" and "5" kicking around that are wasting away.

    If it's a Duc, get them painted on. Don't ruin our image out there with wrinkly decals. If it's anything else...

    Call Robbie Nigl at PeachPit, he's the man. See his link on lrrsracing.com

    I like the idea. Hope it catches on.

    If someone wrecks their race bike they can ride around and find a new bike with their numbers already painted on...

    .......


    what number are you putting on? I guess it could look good if done right.

    Kind of Repsol Edition style

    spray (soak) the area with windex, peel you stick off the backing and place it on the wet area. this will let you slide it to where you want it. then squeegee out the excess. should be good. heat gun might help too. its kinda like window tint.
