Do a little Goggling around before buying. I found a lot of complaints about replicals being uneven in quality. I ended up going with factory decals. They weren't that much more expensive, but the quality was good.

I'd hate to save $50 and have the thing look like **** because of lousy decals.

I've heard a little about that, but I might risk it due to the fact that its the only place I've found that offers custom fairing wing logos that dont have the huge blocky F4i logo on them. I'm good with stickers and vinyls, used to do it for as part of a job, so I'm hoping I'll be able to compensate if the products not perfect. Will look into it more before I buy tho.

I did my bike... it is nice to have someone help. They can help move the bubbles out.

I got the decals from replicals... ~$100 for the whole bike.

I did both sides completely... here is what it looks like now:

This is what it used to look like:

Go to any sign shop or vinyl decal place and they can make you the stickers you need. Usually only costs a couple dollars

How'd you remove the wing stickers from the tank. Like were your knees hit?

I want to get rid of mine but it appears its under the clear coat and I don't wanna have to repaint it.

My bike has served its share of track time - the tank was repainted red from another colour. I've also got a black tank that goes with the track plastics. Someday I'll find a red tail for it - the two spare red tails I have aren't as clean as the black tail.

the F is built into the logo - which is why I didn't cut the I out of it...

You could put Famous over the decal...

You can special request the wings with no F... but it costs more
