There are some real cheap prices on ebay; half of what it costs here, surely quality couldn't be that much worse?

I've been meaning to try these out but haven't got around to it as yet. I think KJ222 may have them on his bike.
I recently got a set of these for my Hindall Yammy and they're brilliant. Even better is the less than a week turn around from 'buy it now' to delivery...all the way from the UK. I like 'em so much I'm going to put them on all of my motocross tackle.

I'd be pretty certain that most sign printer firms with the right hardware could do them here though. It might be a good idea to take one of my Pommy number/surrounds to my usual number printer and see if they can do the same.

I got a set from Pancake Designs on eBay. He did them to my exact custom size I wanted, and they arrived super fast.

Here they are on my 125.... They look great, and are the thick vinyl type.  :)
