They should last a while. I used laser printer label stock for some wtf head stickers for shits and giggles and they didn't last much longer than the huron tour. Neither did the tank lettering. ;D

Nice Curtis ;D ;D
If you want it to last a bit longer get a spray bomb of high temp clear and just spray that end fin. I used high temp clear on the D heads and it hasn't broken down yet.

Right on Ari, I will try that Had an argument with a buddy that seen my "widow maker" decal and said "its just an old antique bike, get over yourself" So i directed him to Wikipedia... Whatever riders may have thought, having sampled an H1, or to whichever degree they had frightened themselves, the majority would usually smile, and say something like, That's some rocket-ship, man! Kawasaki had created their first cult machine!" [9] Motorcycle Survey recorded some unusual nicknames for the Mach III such as "Flexible Flyer", "Widow Maker", "Kamikaze 500", "Triple with a Ripple", "Grenade Launcher."

Had an argument with a buddy that seen my "widow maker" decal and said "its just an old antique bike, get over yourself" this is where "if you ain't ridin' one of these, then you ain't ridden $hit" applies !! Glad to see you young punks interested in what are "the most influential bikes of the 20th Century"

Yup they may not be as fast as a CBR or handle like a GSX-R BUT nothing beats the sound of a Triple or the shear pleasure of riding one.

Many thanks to Andrew and Don for the kick ass pipes! Going to drop the motor in the frame this week and start hanging the pipes, then everything has to come out again to finish painting the frame and mounting the new side stand

These pipes are stellar,
I was surprised at how light each pipe is, just blew my mind completely.
Cheers again,
