Screen Vinyl / Decal

Post by jojo87 »

Hey,

I was thinking of Sticker bombing my screen with my personal 'work mascot' Stickers I have,
would be similar to this, my mascot as different Marvel characters...
but having Stickers overlapping I thought it might look a bit crap and not a clean/flat look.

I was wondering if anyone knows where I can get a large vinyl/decal done to,
send in the design, they print it and I stick it on.....

Isn't that missing the point? No shortcuts to looking like you have a lowered Lupo from a council estate.

I've never really liked the screens on the PCX's, that's why on my previous PCX I had decals made of my company name etc, i've searched for alternatives/modified bits to replace the whole screen with but all a big expensive, and I use my Bike for a lot of work stuff, might not be the image above, i'll probably design something with the red etc in, but wondering if anyone knew of any custom decal printers that can print a large decal for the screen.

Checked around but can't seem to find anything here in the UK, i've seen some Bikes with decals on the screens but not sure where from... just wondering anyway, was either stickerbomb it myself or get a decal custom made, just thought if anyone on here knew of a place...

An interesting concept. My first step with such an opinion would to be reduce the size of the screen by cutting it down flush with the top of the instrument housing. The question then is what to do to take it away visually.

Given the small size any vehicle wrapping place should have off cuts big enough. Spray the inside? In the old days guys would use exchequer pattern, Union Jack etc.. Given your location a welsh dragon?

Have you considered trying something like this. The decal is no longer on it. It is just plain white, but I think they are available to most PCX colours.

Kramer that PCX always sits me straight up in the chair. I wish we could get those hoods over here. Your mighty white was the inspiration for my build, those oversized tires, grips, axel guards and that PRESTEGE BADGE! I'm still not even close to looking that boss... but one can dream.

Yeah that sort of thing... where did you get that from?
guessing they're not available in the UK so shipping will probably be a pain.

Bought it off the shelf here in Thailand, but I believe they are available online as well.

She looks a little different now as I added some plastics (front corners, rear corners, adapted the muffler cover, and added a new front fender {not pictured})

They are fridge parts. With it being a hot as it is in Thailand, we do all we can to keep the bike as cool as possible. ;)

Bike is looking awesome Kram, and just when I thought you were done accessorizing BOOM! You bring on some more! 8)
About those two round gadgets under the exhaust, besides decoration do they serve a safety purpose? Like in a right side fall?
I've Always liked your seat, where did you get it (I know it was local to you but...) would I be able to order it online for a 2015?

Good to have you back!! :P
