edholland Posted January 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2008 i like the GG idea ! let me try something with that. Biff i have a Mutoh 1300-S 1,45 meter max media but for this job i use 60 cm vynil. The stika is a piece of c&*p forget that one please ! I started a few years ago with a GCC Bobcat same priced as the sticka and not bad made for the money and it takes 60 cm media. Try to get a second hand Mutoh,Summa or Roland 24 inch machine would be my advise. Cheers, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddie_lejeune Posted January 5, 2008 Report Share Posted January 5, 2008 can you do like the same idea as moto x stickers who can do them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edholland Posted January 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 Eddie i cant sell them because of the logos and text from GasGas wich are copyrighted. Will ask GasGas when i,m done what they think about offering some decal kits but i,m afraid that will never happen. Cheers, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hontestly my reason for getting a plotter is because i am adicted to stickers and want to make my own when ever. I have been purchasing for the past three years from various job shops and every time i do i wonder why dont i just do this for myself. Thanks again.. --Biff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edholland Posted April 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 (edited) have been playing around with the GasGas what do you think ? the black gloss ones will be matte but i ran out of foil Edited April 14, 2008 by EdHolland Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biffsgasgas Posted April 17, 2008 Report Share Posted April 17, 2008 Lookin good Ed! My roommate and I were at the sign shop the other day and we had some of our team logo stickers made up. Printed on vinyl. I have done my tank in 17 mil thick carbon fiber looking vinyl. I will grab some more pictures tonight. I still haven't purchased my plotter yet but it will come. I have been powder coating a bunch. The exhaust is powder coated with the masked flames and such. And from about a month ago before i started scratching things up. The swing arm decals are not as pretty but i noticed that they do stand up better than standard vinyl. I also did the carbon decal on the rims. Its starting to come up so I am going to use the same stuff that i use for the boot scuff as it seems to be a bit tougher. Of course if you go you have to go in style... Top down of course. I used two packages of this and my trusty heat gun to get it to flex. Carbon fiber sheets --Biff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edholland Posted April 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2008 Nice job on the tank wrap Biff looks really good !! that tank has so many shapes great job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biffsgasgas Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 A good heat gun is the trick. The air box was the hardest part and as it turns out its starting to crack a bit after about 30 rides. We will have to redo. --Biff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
