in fairness the bloke who run bumble signs, had a very bad bike accident, i waited a year for him to recover, never badgered him, when he got intouch, i asked him to send them back when he gets a chance, 6 months later and he still hasn't had a chance, no emails or anything. so i've kissed goodbye to that lot :thumbdown:
never mind, i've wanted numberboards for a couple of years now, they're supposed to be very tricky to do...
also i've got lots of tools/toys in spain, and after several people have taken the piss, i now won't lend any of them out.....

i have a 50th storm and due to a accident i need to remake the boards
i have seen a local sign man who's also a biker and hes pretty keen to try and make them
this raised its head a few weeks back but as i was totally gutted and working away from home didn't get around to tracing the dam things out
so what i'm saying is that over the next few days i will be sending the hole bike to him to take measurements of boards and badges
as soon as i have them i'll post the results
if anyone else wants boards i could tell him to make a few extra sets
:)
told you not to but oh no you knew better

You certainly wouldn't want a holiday in East London :lol: :lol: Mind you you can get a good curry and some Indian sweets down Brick lane. I had a box of Indian sweets (cakes) the other day for a fiver. Yum Yum (rubbing belly) :)

Tapeworks in the states do them.

Probably cheeper to get made over here though, but I'm not sure the vinyl will be as good a quality. Apparent the Tapworks vinyl is the same that car and bike manufacturers use. They also have a good selection of colours including reflectives and chromes etc.

I'm still waiting for someone with a 50th Anniversary edition to carefully copy the rear cowl no. board onto some tracing paper, send me the drawing so I can make a vector drawing.

It may be that your whole purpose in life is simply to serve as a warning to others.

hi MOTOGRAFIX do make them but i have asked and they have no rear ones in stock, however if you ask too they will make them up but i think they need to make maybe 20 sets for it to be worthwhile, i had some on my Fazer and they are great items.
missing the noise, not the vibes. However never say never!
