Since we seem to build and tinker in the off season ie winter I figured a thread dedicated to customized parts for others to get an idea from or express/show off their work.
Paint, powdercoat, ano, decals, speedholes etc.....

Ive done all the work myself on mine from declas, paint and anodizing! You dont have to have done the work yourself just as long as its not stock!

08 66RC3 Custom declas, white lowers, silver stanchions and white crowns (basically had Ronnie get me an ATA set up with RC3 internals! :D



08 Boxxer WC white crowns and custom decals



08 888 WCATA white crowns


Bike stand decal


Rims Powder coated white and custom decals


Chainstay protector for muddy beast


07 888 wc RC2X decals


Custom camo anodized crowns and chainrings



anodized green bullit


copper brakemounts


red flame ano shock mount


purple to red fade flame anodized popst


Orange to red faded cranks anodized

Mutoh falcon outdoor printers, 48" and 64".
Digg'n' the drops for the hardtail.
thanks. They totally transformed the bike form a twitchy dirt jump bike in to a DH and FR monster.


We've got a mimaki at the shop I'm currently at. I don't much care for it. Preferred the Roland at my old shop.

Rolands are nice but I like my cut/print seperate as I have them all working at the same time occasionally and its nice. :cheers:
Yeah I bet lengthening the rear made for a monster!!!! Its amazing what a little bit of WB does for a bike!

you have a good point, it was always a pain juggling print and cut time on the roland. some one was always stuck waiting.

One of the way too many custom jobs. These are the few that I have on photobucket and i'm too lazy to go get my hard drives. Plus she is sleeping on me and won't budge.


Boxxer decals and lyrik decals in the back, green w/ chrome outline

Loving the green Boxxer decals RUFUS.
Thanks, those are the custom ones that I did for my decal/design company RUFUSDESIGN. I wanted to do something a little diff. than just custom colors. Plus it shows clients something diff. if they want to go that route.

Transparent red thermal overprint on Florentine Swirl faux gold leaf vinyl:



As long as we're showing engined bikes too - - remember the '70s when airbrushed murals were the rage? Well, I decided I needed to give my
125 the treatment. Sunrise one one side, sunset on the other, all overshot with pearlescent. (Sorry for the sketchy quality - - it's the only
shot I have scanned at the moment.)

I'll add to the vehicles portion of the thread. I'll post up my frame thats being painted once its done.

Bullcrew: I've seen you post up over on Pirate4x4 so you may appreciate this. I know it doesn't really compare to alot of the guys on there, but I was 16 and never changed my own oil prior to setting this rig up.

1/2 fullwidth axle swap(high pinon 44 front/35 spline 9" rear, locked up, 4.88). Ford radius arm suspension. Manual override of the AW4 auto tranny. 1-ton high steer setup. A/C converted to an on board air compressor. Interior semi-cage built for mounting tools and gear.




Dropouts cut down on my Ruben


Brakes shaved to clear 25-9


Bent and shaped lever and then setup to pull 2 cables.


Deep red with gold/metallic flake paintjob
