Default 2003-2006 "HONDA" Fairing Decal Size

Ok, I've been lurking here for quite a while and this site has provided me lots of very useful information. I am a longtime Honda guy but have just recently purchsed a 2005 Honda F4i. I just had it completely repainted to a satin black. The problem is the painter who was supposed to replace all of the decals forgot to put the HONDA across the bottom on both sides and now doesn't know the size. Can anyone with a similar year model provide me the dimensions? I am waiting for him to get in the new set of decals so he can repaint it and correct some paint flaws. Thanks for any help!

Here's the almost finished product taken during it's maiden tour to Colorado(the F4i decal will be corrected also):

this site has every decal you can imagine, dimensions about halfway down page.
High Quality Decals for Honda F4i

HONDA 14.5" x 1.75" seems about right, not near the bike to measure.

Thanks, I found that website, but didn't want to guess wrong. From what I understand, they are a different size on each side. Unfortunately the local Honda dealer doesn't have one in stock otherwise I would just drive over and measure it. I did a search on here prior to posting to look for the size and many people listed that website along with some other good sites. it just goes to show that I should have handled the decals myself instead of letting the paint guy have "his" guy get them.

Anyone had a chance to put a tape measure on their decal's yet? I hate to keep asking, but I'm due to drop the bike off Monday and I'm unfortunately a perfectionist so I want it to be right.

As I recall, I replaced them on each side with the same size. If they're different, it's slight enough to be unnoticeable. I think they do have a slight arch to them however.

It's been a few years, but I'll try to remember to look through my files and see if I still have the template in a usable format.

*For a reasonable price I think $70 is a bit much for some vinyl stripes
