Title: CX100 decal
Post by: Guzzistajohn on August 07, 2024, 08:12:14 AM
Can anyone send me a good photo of the CX100 decal on the side cover?

Will this do?

Or are you looking for hi-res?

If you’re thinking what I’m thinking, I would like a couple of pairs as well.  Been thinking going red lately…

 Harper’s has none and I’ve not found them elsewhere.  Figured I would do a rubbing of mine to nail down the perimeter size and then proceed. 

Will that help this effort?

PERFECT! Thank you! faffi  :thumb:

Clifford, I'll be visiting some local decal/sign shops to see what I can get done and keep you in the loop.

I've already sent this to a local shop. I'll get extras. He says he's three weeks out. :thumb:

Yeah, when I saw no decals after you painted it I wondered about it.    I was thinking about checking with the shop we’ve used before to see what they could offer.  The old vinyl decals used to be pretty fragile especially around gas/gas tank applications.  I’m guess with wraps being common now that they’re more durable.   

If available, I’ll buy 3 sets just to have spares.  Let me know.  Thanks, John.

I took the photo to a local sign shop that's done some other work for me. They said they would get back to me on Monday, the shop owner is in Florida on Vac. He said it shouldn't be a problem. Ya'll chime in on how many you want.
Title: Re: CX100 decal

If they are doing batch i would take 4. Just in case I mess up when installing them.

Thanks and I hope it works out.

Title: Re: CX100 decal
Post by: Guzzistajohn on October 15, 2024, 08:54:57 AM
I wanted to check back in on this thread because I don't want any of us to be duplicating efforts.

I have a local Sign guy that says he should be able to make these decals but of course has to buy the material in bulk with a minimum fee, Then do the artwork for another fee. And then charge for making them. So I am guessing just for myself it would cost me about $200 to $300 for 4 decals.

If Guzzistajohn is already on this then I want to support you so that you can regain your expenses for the decals. If not then I think I will pursue my contact and have him make a bunch to make it cost effective.

I will do nothing until I hear back from John and of course at this point cannot guaranty that my guy can even do it.

Let me know how you wish for me to proceed ?

Thanks
Marc



hI mARC,

I just talked to Brett @ the sign shop. He's working on the cad file now, lest see what he comes up with.

Title: Re: CX100 decal

I just went out and measured and think the 6.25 inch length looks perfect. It looks like it should fit just like the original picture in this thread.
Title: Re: CX100 decal

Not sure if this will help with color match, but this is a pic of mine in ambient lighting.  Since the bike was painted in the 90’s if not before, I assume they are original.

I'll take a picture of mine. They look like new, though they're probably twenty or thirty years old.
For that price I should get a couple as well.

John, 

Is that a Corbin seat ?  I have them on several of my bikes but in the pictures it looks like that pushes you very far forward. How tall are you and how to you like the seat ??

BTW: My CX has handle bars not clip-ons so I sit a bit more upright. I want your input before I spend another $650 for a seat.  :cool:

This is my comfortable one.

Post by: Moparnut72 on November 02, 2024, 11:25:57 AM
USPS has gotten kind of spotty in my town. I get my mail in spurts. I haven't figured out if the sectional center is understaffed or my local post office. I know the local one is and can't get all the local mail in the boxes on the day they get it. We have a light that they turn off when all the mail is in the boxes. It used to be off before noon. Now it isn't uncommon to see it on after four o'clock. I wonder if the sectional center in Stockton isn't experiencing the same thing which is likely because we had two the one in Stockton and one in Sacramento. Now only the one in Stockton so they are probably handling more mail with the same staff. Only speculation. Don't get me started on the local DMV.
