I would like to know a couple measurements on the racing stripes ... width of the individual stripes, and the width of the center gap between the two stripes.

Thanks

Do you need the measurements for the fender, fly screen, Chin fairing or Tank cover...or all?
I'm pretty sure they are all different.

err... I would have thought they would have been symmetrical front to back ...

I guess the fly screen and tank are the more important if they are not all the same.

Thanks

Thanks guys !

Now who can clear this one up for me ... I have seen two different styles of stripes... the ones on Steve's bike are offset, but I have seen many with equal width stripes, what's the rhyme or reason behind this ?

I believe both the "Red Stripe" and the "Blue Stripe" editions used the same asymmetrical stripes that I modeled the stripes on my bike after. Both bikes also came stock with white wheels to match the stripes.

I don't recall the factory ever doing symmetrical stripes, they will most likely be aftermarket paint.

CR ... you know me - I think bikes are supposed to be black ... and since I only could get red, gotta break it up a little ...

I was wrong. The Tank Cover, Flyscreen & the Chin fairing are all the same measurements.

Small stripe: 1/4"
Thick stripe: 4"
Space in between: 1/4"

The Front fender is different. 2 dimensions on the front fender. Stripes change dimensions from the front of the fender to the back of the fender.

I sent pics to your email so I didn't have to re-size here.

Let me know if you need more......
