I just wanted to show off the prototype 250R graphic kit that I made for myself at work. I'm in the process of changing my 350RX into a YZ hybrid so I thought it's time for a new look as well.

I don't want to get a new seat cover yet so we (at work) made the old K&K seat cover blend into the new graphics. I do want to darken up the 3 silver stripes that run into the seat so they look at least close in color.

My plan is to finish my build then maybe this summer get new fenders and a seat pan and make a another graphic kit without the seat blend. This way I'll have a complete spare matching fender/seat combo and the new ones as well.

I know this is not the hybrid section but I just wanted to hear some imput or ideas on the graphics from the 250R guys!

That's awesome! I love how u made the new graphics blend with the old seat cover. Seat covers normally last longer then graphics so doing this breaths new life into the old cover. I'm sure you can market this idea. I'll be a customer for sure. My K&K graphics are peeling my seat is still in great shape.

Thanks guys!

HRE is my buddy who builds custom ATV parts.

I know it's hard to tell by the pics but the background diamond plate has been ''aged'', it has that corrosion look to it. Then I wanted it to look like I bolted a new shiny aluminum HRE logo onto my plastic.

If anyone has a seat cover like mine and would like a graphic kit, my boss has said he is willing to sell these if we get enough demand. Even if you have a different seat, I could easily remove the seat art work from the graphics kit.

The material we got in is made for ATV and dirt bike use and is slightly thicker then graphic kits I have had in the past.

I need a custom set ASAP. If you are interested in making a set let's talk. Where in PA are you located?

I'm needing a place to have some custom graphics printed. A friend of mine has already finished the design, I just need somewhere to actually print them for me.
