Nice.
That's the lettering I was looking for but the hobbies shop in our little town only had those gold ones. Will replace 'em next time I'm in the city.

A mate of mine has a "printer" that creates vinyl stickers I think the font he used was a standard Windows one

Well I think it's a good idea to 'personalise' you're bike. Apart from the fact that I'm very proud of mine
there is a practical reason to do so. I mean, if a fellow Trixter (in mufti?) happens across my bike parked-up somewhere in town say, or at a 'meet', they can either hang around for a chat or go, "Oh
it's that prat.". and make good their escape before my return.

I find it useful at the meets to recognise who's who

an old bloke outside Williams BMW looked at my BCR one day and asked me if I was Randy? He was ever so embarressed when I pointed out that's a very personal question to ask a guy
