Thanks bluebird

Guess I can bribe one of my friends to sit on the bike and lift her up a bit. A few beers and a pack of smokes should do it.
Beer and smokes - my favorite type of money!

For the decals I traced the factory tribal designs. I bought bulk tape reflective vinyl and the rimstripes at www.tapeworks.com. They also have generic bike kits on there.

Just got my rimstripes in and waiting for the temp to raise a little before I put them on. Seems pretty straight forward. Did you run into any problems?

No problems other than it does take a while to cut the strips and you do have to mess around to get the rimstripe to round out the inside of the rim. Think straight line and rounded rim. The rimstripe is flexible though and once you figure it out the few inches you'll be fine.
