Decals or No Decals? That is the question!

[Zuzu_2000]

I recently got ran off the road and the all the fairings are getting replaced. I had a Blue 2000 Kat, and have replaced the tail with an '05 Space Black tail. All the remaining fairings are also getting replaced with the '05 Black fairing as well... so... Here is the question...

Should I leave the stock decals on or remove them?

I voted get those decals off ... personely I don't like them ... but like you said in your poll .. lots of naked black Kats around too .... I'm the customize it your style more then stock or naked.

Some nice original decals in your favorite color besides black would look awesome.

Keep the Suzuki Logo that is on the tank.....Everything else must go!

I say leave them. Some of the bikes with the totally NO decals looks like they were wrecked and just repainted a solid color.

I do like the black kat with the only decal being the SUZUKI written on the lower fairing though.

Post up some pics. I want to see which set of decals is on your fairing.

It all boils down to personal taste and preference. Just go with what your gut tells you!

As requested... here is a pic with the decals (except replace GSXF with Katana, and that is what I have) of which I am talking about:

I'm torn, that is why I am asking what you good people think...

I think it looks better with the stickers, and one advantage is that if you ever lightly let it down, the stickers will be scratched, and you can just peal them off and still have a nice paint job.

When I had my last kat, it was laid down pretty bad, and after I took off the stickers it wasnt that bad.

I think that if the Kat didnt come with decals, people would be putting on the decals and thinking how cool they look.. But its always about being unique though and doing something different... and doing a 'mod'.

I would definately say to do the mesh mod if you wanted to do a lil something before putting on the fairings though.

I say leave the tail decals but lose the fronts.

Off with em....

I think you should take them off and put one unique small sticker somewhere

That would look perfect if you removed the 600 decals and replaced them with some nice silver Katriders decals!

I say off, I stripped mine. I left the Suzuki on and made new 750 stickers out of reflective tape. Of course, us Pre's had some pretty ugly tape jobs/color combo's, IMO. So they had to go.

I say fit pre 98 fairing with stickers..
