Hi everybody!

I just did it! I prepared it at home (using our forums logo as an idea), went with it to a friend with a proper cutting plotter, and pronto! Here's the result.

If anybody wants I have it ready in CorelDraw format. Just pass me your email.

Best Regards!

Sharp logo; I'll send you a PM with my email. Keep the inspiration coming!!!

Prost!

doug_id · « **Reply #4 on:** April 04, 2007, 08:51:01 AM »

Yes, that is very nice looking

Can you e-mail it to me at doug_id@yahoo.com?

I assume you got it done in vinyl?

Nice job!

Buber,

That is a great looking logo - very clean!

don't suppose your buddy would be interested in making me a logo?
i have it ready to go in vector format - i just can't find anyone that will do it withough a $40 setup charge.

greenjeans · « **Reply #7 on:** April 04, 2007, 10:36:43 AM »

Send it to me. juan-verde@excite.com I'll cut it for you

Buber · « **Reply #8 on:** April 04, 2007, 11:45:02 AM »

Thanks! I just thought that this will be the simplest solution. Here it is attached. Just download it, and change the extension to .cdr (as forum wouldn't accept .cdr extension), and you can use it!

When it comes to cutting - I paid today equivalent of 7U$, but that was price for a friend. For a normal customer it would be like 10 bucks... I think I could mail it then... (I'm from Poland, so the letter would go like a week, but I don't see any problem

)
Material - this friend of mine has a small advertising company, and he uses the typical stickering foil. I'm no expert, but this is the stuff you use on the car labelling and so on. I hope it's gonna stay. If not - heck, I can spend 7U$ per year just to keep it pristine!

Anyway - just as an encouragement - sit down on your computers, and nice things happen!

Best Regards!

Doug, you thinkin of putting those on in place of the spiders? Mabey do it in black and red?

Yeah maybe, I am lukewarm on the spiders. $:-\$

I have a buddy at the local custom t-shirt / sign shop/ etc.....think he said they have a machine that will do the vinyl.

greenjeans · « **Reply #11 on:** April 04, 2007, 02:30:19 PM »

Doug, I almost hate to say it for fear of being struck by lightening....but those spiders are the ONLY thing I'd change on your outstanding cycle.....they just don't seem to go with it. I'll cut you guys some stuff for free...no biggie. just can't make it an everyday thing. send me your files and color choices - I have a pretty good selection of vinyl, but most of it is pretty standard colors. pay it forward as they say....

hymodyne · « **Reply #12 on:** April 04, 2007, 05:03:55 PM »

could you do a pair that read "cb 605" for my cafe? I took the emblems off the side covers (cb500) specifically because they were no longer accurate.

btw, can you do boat lettering?

Hi Greenjeans,

Thx much for offering to print these off for me...that would be great.

I need to find some way to open the CDR file though and change it to 550.

Can't have false advertising.....

Doug

If it looks like his, I can do that....I'm a graphics whiz so send me a jpeg or any file that you might have.
I'll try and get them mailed out today or tomorrow

hymodyne, e-mail me your address & I'll send you some as well...color? & yes I can do boat lettering (out of vinyl)

Hey Greenjeans, once you get one of those files could you alter it for a CB750?

I'll pay whatever the fair rate is, of course.

medic09 · « **Reply #16 on:** April 05, 2007, 05:07:51 AM »

Buber, I think you've started something here!

BTW, any relation to the author/philosopher Martin Buber?

jensk · « **Reply #17 on:** April 05, 2007, 05:54:12 AM »

I need a file that reads 550 in stead of 650. How about doing a complete set of decals for all the major CB displacements like 350., 400, 500, 550. 650. 750. Putting those for download on the sohc/4 server?

SteveD CB500F · « **Reply #18 on:** April 05, 2007, 06:19:46 AM »

I agree.

But not a pdf file please...

greenjeans · « **Reply #19 on:** April 05, 2007, 06:25:15 AM »

working on several. will post shortly.

I modified the 650 to be 550.

I also stretched a little vertically but you can undo that if you don't like it.

Because I don't have anything other than Adobe Reader and can't modify pdf files.

Anything that can be imported to Photoshop will be fine.

greenjeans · « **Reply #23 on:** April 05, 2007, 07:58:46 AM »

I have some files that have the old honda wing, new honda wing and the other design.
Vector-based files.... Illustrator & Flexi-sign. Any sign shop should be able to open and them & resize/cut etc. Anybody know where to send them to get them so everyone could download them?
SOme of the files are larger than 80k - can't post them.....

SteveD CB500F · « **Reply #24 on:** April 05, 2007, 07:59:53 AM »

email them to me and I'll get them up on the site.

BTW - I can convert vector graphics so not just Photoshop files...
