I need the large blue BUELL tank letters for the gas tank for my S1 White Lightning. I cant find any original white body plastics, so I plan on repainting the black ones. Also the frame stickers are needed. Is it even possible to obtain those? I've been looking and looking and have found some White Tank decals, but no Blue. And the frame stickers... Man... I just don't know. Any help or info would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you. I have PMed him. Do you know if the original bikes came with the thin vinyl letters or the thicker larger letters. I would really like the the thicker larger letters in blue for it. My regular S1 looks bitchin with the larger thicker white letters on black. I would kill to get the same in blue on the pearl white.

The factory tanks were the vinyl stickers, under the clearcoat.

The factory recall tanks (for bubbling) had the thick, 3D badge decals on them.

The stickers were super-susceptible to bubbling. The badge-stickers were implemented as a stopgap to help prevent the bubbling issue.

That's what I need. Either the 3D Badge Stickers or a recalled tank would be better. Any ideas on how to proceed on acquiring either of those?

This business did make the decals

Here is a post about making the stickers etc.

But the best option is to have a look at www.UKbeg.com and ask ,there is someone that makes a lot of stickers and decals ,his forum name is XB4RT
