Does any one Know where I might find some graphics kits for my 94 FC600 (not OEM from Husaberg)?
Thanks
Thanks
I think someone posted a link the other day regarding a source for aftermarket graphics etc... for the older bikes.

Try www.huntgraphic.com as one source.
Look up Blackbird racing over in the UK.
Call www.powersportgrafx.com at 800.903.6764. They made the decals for my '02 501.
There have been other threads in the past asking this same question. Try doing a search.

i can supply blackbird graphics. the kit appears to have astickers for the tank and rad shroud, each side of the front guard, rear tail top and possibly another one over the headlight - but i can't tell! the set is £48.
the seat cover is £32.50 while there is another seat cover available with husaberg nicely written on the side for £29. old seat foams are available etc.
for those with brains just put "pound to dollar" in a google search and some sight will oiffer you an easy conversion rate.

I pretty got at getting exchange rates, right now a bit tight on cash but First of the year i will be little better off. Definitely interested, but have to wait until after Christmas. Thank you all for the help.

hi ned
i am not involved in adding it but i have to pay it up front and as a non-vat registered payer i am therefoire also a non vat adder. aha! i hear you say, so that means all your customers are 15% better off!
well no, they have to pay a margin on top of my trade price which had vat on it so i keep a margin.
example
business A buys a product at £100 plus VAT at 15% so they pay £115 inclusive. they then sell the product for £200 plus vat and the total is £230 to the customer. they then claim it back at the end of the quarter. they add up all the vat they paid out (£15 here) and then add up all the vat they got back (£30 here) and put column B against column A and pay the difference.
you make no profit from VAT, you are government tax collector.
in effect, you're paying VAT on your profit. VAT is chargeable on everything: labour, parts, postage.
in my case, i pay £115 for the product and add the profit of £100 making the total £215 to the customer. my margin is still £100 but the product is £15 cheaper! the problem is that the product was £200 before VAT but that i'm charging £15 more than the RRP.
so you could argue three ways here:
1) i should charge the same price as a VAT registered business at £230 and net extra profit....after all it's what the customer pays that matters!
2) i should carry on as i am and remain cheaper than registered business' but retain the same margin....
or
3) the retail is £200 and i should only charge £200 and if my margin is eaten up with vat then tough!
the way i look at it, the customer is getting a good deal and i'm cheaper than registered companies.
so although i said i have to add vat: it was a rhetorical question.

I've seen & googled just about every grafix shop, but can anyone tell me where I could get a set like the ones in Lucky's recently posted pics. Look at the picture "Mt first enduro bike FE650e 2001". Love it - clear clean & simple. Also want the seat. (FE501 2002)

this would you believe james is the standard kit for an '01 and was considered by some a little 'garish' at the time but i agree now it looks good.
job to know what colours go together given that you don't start with a clean sheet.
the N style graphics flowed and had some black and scarlet in there.

Cheers Tafffy. What are N style I keep hearing about. I just want a nice clean set like the above. Anyone got any.
Still prefer Lucky's old 01 (& not a US wing in sight). Suppost I could get anyone to do the grafix - most of the boys have the vector files for 02's, but that about the seat ?? anyone know anyone who could make these skins.
