    Hello,

    I am the proud owner of a 1990 VFR 750F in Australia.
    I have recently completely repainted her in stunning Velocity Red Mica. I now need a set of original decals to finish the job. Can anyone help me out?
    I have already been burned by www.honda-decals.com who were happy to take my money but not so forthcoming with the decals. I have also checked out www.xtremedecals.com and www.bike-decals.com and they all appear to be run by the same thieves. I have emailed all three several times inquiring about their decals, location and contact details and have yet to receive one reply to anything i send, so on that basis I will give them a wide berth and suggest you all do the same.
    Anyhow if anyone could supply me with an email address or website that I can safely order a quality set of reproduction decals to finish my restoration I would be most grateful.
    Thanks and keep it upright :)

    Thanks oz vfr. As per my previous comments, I have ordered a set of decals from these guys, they took my money but I never received my decals after 3 months and they would not reply to any emails I sent them and had to open a dispute with my bank to retrieve my payment I sent them. My experience with www.honda-decals.com was less than satisfactory and I would not order from them again.

    One might think that this company for the small amount of the purchase would make good on a legitimate and proven order. If not, fuck em..

    I have used motor-stickers.com twice last year, and been very happy both times. I think they are located in Poland, but I had no communication issues (I just typed english in capitals, as one does). Bought some nose and tail stickers for my VTR, and the nose, tail and side stickers for my 5th gen. The VFR side sticker was really lovely.

    Yes us Kiwi's are quite partial to our Ventura racks. There's no truth to the rumour that they're compulsory for all NZ registered bike however. Did you know that they're made here? Here I am, way back in 1982...with a Ventura rack, and trying desperately hard to look cool....

    The US distributor is a friend. Good stuff! I am running Ventura's headlight protector on the mach 1 91. Changed the Velcro tabs a time or three but still holding and no busted headlamps.

    Maybe best not to show that mobile with your skivvies since it could get SOW all exited. Excited yes, Cool? Never.. ;)

    Interesting tag on that wall that must have been pre 1980.

    Sorry Billy.

    Is this better / less arousing?

    Shame you had a problem.
    I've ordered 4 times of them over a couple of years without a problem, arrived fast and great quality.
    Every time stickers came from Malta.
    Shit does happen, sadly once bitten twice shy.

    I ordered a set of decals for my 91 vfr 5 weeks ago and nothing yet.Also sent them a an email with no reply.
    Hope they are just slow in producing them but if they don't show at all I will be making some internet noise!

    Sometimes, asking the right question, results in a faster response or answer to the question.

    Case in point here: Are all 1990 Honda VFRFs the same world wide?

    Or better said are all 1990-1993 Honda VFRFs the same according to that sillyass generational hogwash that somebody dreampt up..

    Silly old me I paid my money and expected them to send me the product?
    Since they didn't my Question "has my order been shipped yet" seems reasonable to me.
    And your point is what?

    If they "didn't your Question", fuck em!

    No particular point other than making the assumption that all 1990-1993 Honda VFRFs are the same including the graphics.

    I can set you up with a couple of guys I know from New Jersey that can get solid answers for you. www.guidoandtony.com

    I used "The Image Works" in the UK and was pretty happy with them, The colours are slightly lighter than the genuine Honda ones.

    I eventually ordered the decals from severnvinylgraphics on ebay. Received cropped vfr.jpg them in good time and are fabulous. I would highly recommend them.
