Default Decal Positioning

Since I was foolish enough NOT to measure the exact locations of the decals on my CBR 600 F4. Is there a place to get those numbers? I have ordered original Honda decals. The shop maual and parts book do not give numbers. Really there are only three I am concerned with. The "Honda" on the lower fairing, the "CBR" on the top fairing and the "F4" on the tail.

get a spray bottle filled with water and a little dish washing soap and spray the area you want to put the decal, peel the back off the decal and spray it also. then apply the decal and move it into place. the soapy water will let you move the decal around. when the decal is where you want it squgee the soapy water out with your fingers. work the bubbles out. and let it dry.

Thanks for the tip on applying them. I will find a bike around here and measure them up. Nothing worse than seeing them in the wrong position. I remember when I was restoring British bikes and how often you would see a Norton with the Norton decal in the wrong place on the tank. It sticks out like a sore thumb.
