This is my bike. My bike needs some gold decals. Anyone know where I would be able to order two R1 and two Yamaha stickers? Thanks in advanced everyone.
 
Any Yamaha dealer should have them. I just got the 2 R1 logos and they look great. The best part is they are factory. The thing is they are for the 08 Raven so you have to tell them that.

I think that would work well. Factory stickers are very good in quality.
 
about a week ago i posted some pics of my bike. i have a raven too. took the silver ones off. went to the dealer and ordered the gold set that goes on the 08's. then i traded my black forks for some gold ones, same with the calipers. i blacked out my wheels by putting black stripes over the red ones. then i dropped it an inch or two. it looks so good. i love it. got all 4 decals for less than 50 bucks.

I really wish to see some photos of your ride. And when you said you "traded" your black forks for some gold ones, how did that work and how hard is the job to do? PICS!

Here's a recent thread with a guy who got a good deal for some gold wheels, look at the imgshackpics:

The FZ-1 rims usede here supposedly has a greenish tint to their gold wheels - I dunno.

My dealer here in Norway wouldn't help me except charging full price for another set, so I'll look into powder-coating or Marchesini's gold-plateed aluminum. Black and gold is unbeatable sexy and racing IMO.

I'll take delivery of my bike wednesday I believe - can't wait!

HardRacing.com has good prices on Marchesini wheels.
