    Tank decal help

    I just restored my 85' Honda ATC 350X and bought some decals off of eBay for my tank. After getting them, I realized they were not the same OEM style as original. Any thoughts as to where I could buy a set for me trike? Thanks for any help and direction!

    These worked for me..as close to the orginal as I could find and good adhesion.

    Note: mine is an '86, not sure how different the decal is from yours.

    Yeah I hear you on the decals not being the right size. I got the 86 R front and rear fender decal off ebay from a popular seller and its a diff height and longer than original it looked stupid. Then I got Harlen's # them are the best by far. I used them for my back window and helmet. The color was off too

They look really nice, if ya want em I can send em to you. I see your not too far away. Theye're just sittin in my sticker envelope, they seem too nice to just stick anywhere.

    Thanks for the offer mtsnieg, but it sounds like you have the same ones I have, but the Honda is in White? I believe these were closer to the 250R decal and not the 350X? I have the set I bought on eBay on the tank now and they would work great, except I am trying to restore to original and I would really like to find some that are as close to what came with it from the factory as I can.
    I emailed Harlan, so hopefully he can sell me some that are OEM style? Thanks again for the leads!

    Harlans are the nicest ones, outside of oem ones.... He makes nice decals.
    No trikes. Too old, too crippled. Unless I find one I can't live without!

    For what it's worth, I exchanged e-mails with him back on April 22... I think he is around now.

    By the way, I agree: his decals are the best. I have purchased decals from a few different people, and his are the cleanest (graphically) and most accurate.

    I sent him an email, but still have not heard from him? The way you guys talk, I can't wait to get them from him! Thanks again for the help! Just hope he responds sooner rather then later.

    I got an E-mail from him at the beginning of June and have tried a couple times since then to contact him with no luck. I hope all is OK with Harlan, I just wanted too see if anyone else had had contact with him.
