I just took a template and idea down to the decal shop for an estimate on custom graffix on 8mil vinyl. Red on silver. No stone gaurd. They are digitizing it now and will get back to me with a price. Im just wondering what to expect.

I know Quadjunkies has done this, has anyone else?

Three minutes with a pressure washer, and you have a clean slate;) Then add a little flame to "kick it up a notch":D

But Kayla said that it just looked "unfinished" so we went to CycleGear and got a sheet of stickers for $12, and "BAM!" Another notch!

It looks alot better now. We left room on the rear fenders for numbers, and even got in some advertising for C&DRacing and The Quadshop ;) I also talked her into saving room for an EXriders.com sticker:macho

WOW I like I like!!! Tell Kayla she's rockin now baby :D she'll look good out there on the track too. Trevor likes it he was just looking @ it hehe. Now some flames like that would look real sweet on my 300 I think ;) can he just use the same template?? Dont want anything real big cuz they will get rubbed off on the left side :blah:

I would say probably not. But making the template was the easy part. I just took a few peices of used paper and some tape and layed it out on the side if the plastic and cut it to fit. You only have to do one side because the other side is a reverse image.
Once you have a template your satisfied with, take it in to him, and sift through all the different flame styles he has and pick a style and colors. His shop is in Puyallup, if you want his # LMK;)

Glad you like it, maybe you'll get to see it at the track some day.

With any luck it will get wheels and tires soon. I havent decided on a tire yet.:confused: The front tires seem to do pretty well So it will probably just get a set of rears for now. Maybe some 18" claws or holeshots.

QJ, if it gets a seat cover, it won't be for a while. Kayla is out growing the speed faster than I anticipated:eek: She got on my 400 Saturday for the first time and started it and rode away! She made about three laps around the yard then headed for the track. She made a couple laps on the track and came back in grinning from ear to ear.
So more than likely any money spent other than tires will more likely go into clutching and a pipe;)

LRD use to have them on their site. I did a search and found that QuadTech makes them. At there site:
Retail $165 :(
Ordering 5 - $140 :)
Ordering 10 - $115 :D

I might be willing to go the $115... maybe we can get a group purchase here? :blah:

According to my search, and remembering the LRD website, they've got a tank cover too!

Here's the price list that I found this morning: should have posted it then... :rolleyes:

I'm not sure if its for public viewing or not... tells how much dealers are paying for this stuff!

No I havent seen it yet. Good for you! Hope you enjoy it, and yah maybe you can land a payin job as well;) Keep us posted.

As far as me loosin my 400, I dont think so. Not just yet. She may be able to put around on it in first, but she cant shift yet.;) She has a while before she will be able to really ride it. And when she can.... well then I guess I'll go get me a NEW QUAD!!:p




and a PM about a few other things
(in my best Tom Lykis voice)......Reealllly:D
