Title: recommendations for good quality decals wanted
Post by: King2 on November 06, 2019, 03:02:23 AM
Looking for RD400 daytona side cover decals. I don't really want to buy the entire decal set, just the side covers. I found two vendors selling just the side covers... Yamatopdog on Ebay, and Diablo Cycles (Reproduction Decals) . Anyone use these either of these vendor's  decals?   Any other suppliers you can recommend?

thanks

I've used Diablo Cycles and am happy with their vinyl decals. They were recommended to me by a very meticulous refinishing guy.

I found that that Yambits has the best decals for the engine side covers as they are actually aluminum vs the vinyl that Diablo carries.

RD Decals has great stuff and I have likely used 25 of their kits.

I'll be using AFE/RDdecals for my LC project as they are the only place I have found the proper '80/'81 JDM 4U0 RZ350 kit

They are quality decals and true to the originals.  Have used for many different bikes and multiple brands, Suzuki, Kawi, and Yamaha inc TZR, RD models, ZX7, RZ, LC etc.

For the engine side covers I would likely try and find metal replacements.
