Title: No More (Cosmetic) Mods...
Post by: NEWGS500F on December 02, 2008, 12:10:47 PM
OK, so I just got done finishing my cleaned up pics I took of my GS a fortnight ago or so (cleaned up as in - took the snaps at home in the garden, removed the garden for a nice background colour!)

Complete with the following cosmetic mods ONLY:

Cafeboy rear cowl, custom GS500F decals, Motrax rim tapes, valve caps and screen trim and carbon fiber bar ends...

Now, no more cosmetic mods..... :thumb:

Great looking bike and nice skills with the Photo Shop  :thumb:

Where did you get the custom decals? I like to get some for my F!

+1 where did you get those custom decals.  I have an 07 with the blue rimstripes and the custom decal makes your bike look 1000x better!

Cheers guys ...   :thumb:

I got the decals custom made from a graphics company in the UK (I would need to hunt for the receipt to find out which one) but indeed, they did make a good job and the decal quality is very good.  Vinyl that should last 5-7 years I suspect - a good lot of rain/snow/etc later and it still as good as when I stuck it on (albeit recent).

I'll look it out where I got em done and post it up...

Incidentally, I had this done as the UK models dont come with the big red F and the GS500 on the fairings .. they come with nothing but the Suzuki decal...I notice all the US 500F's (certainly the new ones) come with this decal installed...I hunted for this, couldnt get it in the UK so had no choice but to have one made up... I like it tho.  Fills the gap a bit...
