hi all. i'm having some high quality gas tank stickers made. the long ones like on the mx and watermelon tanks. they will be the black lettering on white like the smaller bikes, not the 400.
the material will be thicker like modern graphics with good adhesive and they won't wear off the letters and stripes. they should hold up significantly better for racing than the old silk-screened type. anyone interested in a set? they will be in the 30$ range. they will not be perforated but due to the way that the new gas deteriorates fiberglass i'll be draining my tanks anyway. if interested, please let me know asap because they'll be getting run very soon.

Whats this about new gas ruining fiberglass tanks????

GASOHOL ruins fiberglass tanks and rubber parts in your fuel system.

PS: I would probably try some 100LL AvGas if you can't get straight 93oct gasoline. AvGas is not normally recommended because it can make the bike run a bit flat.
Hey Jerry,
What year are the decals for? Do you have any photos of what they look like? I am trying to get a set for a 1976 MC 5 tank. How about the side pannels; "MC 5," "250." Let me know. Thanks, James
Hello,
I will take two sets of the stickers. Call me 727 372 2379

ChiJer, Yes to that - twice here. Thanks very much. Bob
they will look like the long stickers available from al b. except that they will be thicker, better adhesive and the graphic is impregnated so as to not rub off. hey james,(ski-racer) take a look at buehners parts website and you can see the design, its listed with his gas tanks. i will contact the guy making them for me again today so i will have more info a little later. chi jer
I'm in for a set.
Is there any chance the same decal could be produced with inverted colors (white letters on black)while they are making a run? I just got some of these for my bike from Al Buhner and they look great, but if they are going to ware out fast it would be nice to have a high quality replacement.

Are you reproducing the center stripe also? {Black and white stripes} Tanks!
i expect to receive the stickers today. i'll call him and find out how hard it would be to invert the black/white and enquire about the center stripe. since i have ten sets accounted for it defrayed the artwork set-up up fee. stay-tuned... chi jer
jerry, i would also be interested in white on black. thanks dennis
