just got quoted like 500 from a company to do custom graphics, thats not gonna work
can we post up a list of the companies that have the templates and how to get a hold of them once and for all for everyone to see? preferably in america
searching a bunch of threads isnt working out for me

ckruzel can do them (and do they well, surely cheaper) and I do believe that our Mexican compadre, QroMexicoEnduro, sent his plastic's to socal or decal worx one of them... shoot him a PM

but I definitly can vouch for Ckruzels work....Top notch

marcusw · 11-20-2007, 09:24 PM

Duc can you post a pic of your bike??? After so many requests over the past few months I am wondering if it exists

The only way we got to see your RMZ was in the SMR mag!!!!!!!!

duc slayer · 11-20-2007, 09:32 PM

I will do my best to steal...I mean borrow my housemates digit camera, Than I'll have to email them to someone to post

just keep after me and I'll get to it..... for some strange reason, unknown to me, my short term memory is a little "fuzzy"

ckruzel · 11-20-2007, 11:48 PM

here are a few more pics, i know back in the summer i had a few requests that i couldnt do in time. it wasn't that i didn't want the work or to do them, its just i do this at night after my regular job and i was swamped, winter seems to be an easier time for custom projects even when you have the templates they take time. you want to mock up stuff and send proofs for the owner to make sure they are ok, then sometimes make changes and such

ckruzel · 11-20-2007, 11:50 PM

forgot to mention, the fender decals for ducslayer were left stock, i just made up the smaller decals to go over the oem decals same with the shrouds, we did that in case he didn't like them adn wanted to remove them but everything can be printed on one, the decals i do are only 5mil thick,not like motocross graphics that are around 12-16mil but the clear laminate seems to hold up well for them

RZRob · 11-21-2007, 12:07 AM

Nice job on the SXV Graphics CKRUZEL. Are you considering doing the swingarm cutout too? So, are these like layers or, what's the basic manufacturing process? I always wondered?

RZ Rob

ckruzel · 11-21-2007, 12:26 AM

i used to layer cut vinyl when i only had a cutter, but for complex multicolors its next to impossible, those decals are all printed and laminated with clear for protection and gloss

i'd love to do some swingarm decals like the rip-it bikes but i need a donor bike for a template or someone to send me one

ONLY if you don't have them design anything --- it's $250 for design costs PLUS $180 for the decals.

Plus I'd rather support our local forum decal expert....

Chris, how long does it take if you have the bike?

spence

PM sent too.

ckruzel · 11-21-2007, 01:25 PM

just the day should be good, i just need a mock up template

i never charge for design work, i'm always happy to get the business

i'll say it again though, i've had numerous requests for the sxv kits back when i was slammed and i'm sorry if i left any of you guys down. the winter is slower though so its easier heading into winter to do custom work
