Tank Graphics

Looking for some Tank graphics for my 84 any suggestions .

It may be wise to put a generic decal on it before you buy repro decals, old plastic tanks tend to leech fuel through the plastic preventing decals from adhering.
I once put a decal set on a two year old XR600 (I know, I know) only to find one blistering badly and the other on the workshop floor after a few days.

P.S. Nice bike!

I'm not overly concerned about being faithful to the original just want to tidy it up a bit . seem to remember a company in Canada ? that did a tank wrap for want of a better description . but cant find it on the net.

For some models you could buy a plastic tank cover, at least decals will stick to them!

Sorry David, I didn't mean a faithful resto, only to determine that decals will stick instead of falling off like mine did, which was a total waste of time and money.

All good i get what you are saying.

I use MXM graphics from the UK. Top quality. Get the perforated decals. I drain the fuel from my tank after every weekend racing and it helps reduce the brown staining. Tank decals will still lift over time - especially if you spill fuel over them!
They also do the side cover decals and number plate decals for the 1984 models. Will do custom graphics if you want something different to their standard designs.

Isn't there some kind of internal coating you could put in the tank to prevent vapor loss?

Internal coatings almost always eventually separate from the inside of the tank.

Not if you follow the instructions on Caswell and the gentleman here on the forum that did better than Caswell did.

thanks for the input guys

EVO MX are the best. correct colors (yellow on most is too light)

i have ordered a set from Evo. Thanks Dave

Best you can buy.

Just revived my decals from from Evo , very pleased will pop up a pic when i get chance to fit them.

david not that it maters now since you got your decals, but I believe the place in Canada you are asking about is Vintage roost. Just FYI
