Here is a template I made in Illustrator and Photoshop.

I wonder if someone could print it in on white paper first and cut it to make sure the dimensions are correct?

Following that I'm looking for someone who can design something simple but nice and also for someone who can manufacture these decals.

The idea would be to make some kits with the UHE logo and to sell them to finance this site.

Frog, go to www.xgxracing.com, they do custom work. as for the template, print one out on paper at full scale and see how it fits, my 05 OEM graffic was two pieces, one upper one lower. Let me know if I can help out. One more idea, buy one of the sets that are on e-bay right now and use there graffic for the template.[/url]

Maybe one of the race teams could donate a set for template sizing.
I have seen them with American flag , Swedish flag and Canadian maple leaf . Hopefully someone can help .

I can do some stuff, I am not the best graphic designer but from being a Web guy I had to learn my way around these programs (Illustrator and Photoshop) and I can design a few things.

What I was thinking about was the rider's name with nation flag and blood type (like they do in the Dakar - mandatory).

Looks "serious" but also personalizes the bike a bit.

Graphics

You guys are onto something. After-market graphics are historically a weak area for Berg owners. If you can tie UHE donorship to the end cost of the set, that might get a few more people donating as well. Or just sell tehm outright, as frog suggests. Either way, it's a great idea. BD

O.... k....... I will try and see but all I have right now is the template with shapes, nothing more.

I am not a graphic guy, I can do some stuff but I don't think I can do something that nice. That's why I am looking for a computer artist, they are out there.

I am getting a local guy ( www.ringmasterimages.com.au ) to make some custom graphics for my steed.
He makes them for most of the race teems down here.
Dont know if he could do a pre 00.
Also makes "gripper" seat covers.
Will post pictures when i get them.
