Gen 3 Graphics

[rusu.bogdan]

I can't help noticing that there's a gazillion of nice graphics for busa gen 1 and 2 but none that I could fine for Gen3.

Here is an example; Street Bike Graphics Kit Decal Wrap For Suzuki Hayabusa GSX1300R 08-13 WIDOW R K | eBay

I am wondering if anyone can share secrets, know something similar ? :-)

I own a black busa / boring!

Haha, but true! Duplicating the kanji and font isn't a problem in different colors, anything outside OEM look I'm not sure I can help.

there are png files floating around if you want stock but in a new color.


The Gen 1 and Gen 2 have all the redesigned stuff simply because they’ve been out for 20 years.

yup pretty much so; finding graphics online is easy but printing could be a harder task to perform. I remember a few years back i used to print decals on special paper , transparent but it required spay paint to water proof etc... besides having a printer ready to print on vinyl as well materials requires rather a small manufacture. :-)
I wish someone out there realizes the potential and start printing decals like they did with the previous versions

If you’re handy with the design part a local decal shop should have everything to cut it easily. I’ve done that before with some collectors edition camaro/firebird graphics and it was surprisingly cheap.

That is an excellent recommendation

Just took mine along to a local graphix company, very happy with the results

Imo, motorbikes, like womens lingerie, should be......black and red . But, that's just my opinion

Serious, wouldn't look out of place in a carnival parade

And here she is with the Chrome replaced with it vinyl wrapped black. Looks way better imo.

this could match very well if the plastic covers were also red . They sell those as kit on ebay at 600 dollars.

That would be too much red for my taste but, I am looking at carbon fibre

Are those pieces removed after pulling the fairing off?

Off topic, but F-bodies are the best!

irst car was an 02 SS (it’s where I got my username from) and I love that car. I wish I had taken better care of it instead of half ass racecaring it lol. Every thing a clean one comes up for sale I debate selling my z06 and just building a cruiser.

Yes. They clip/bolt where is circled in blue and one more place down by the bottom. They get sandwhich Ed between the fairing and the grill

The one that I sold and regret was 00 T/A Firehawk. Years later randomly came across a local, clean and low miles for the year. It was a great daily for a couple of years. One day I'll get another
