That looks cool man. Much better than the Monster/Rockstar crap they offer now!
Now if you can just get JT to make you an oldskool outfit you'd be set.

Looks great! I would like to do something similar to my KX. I like the old school look, prob cause I'm old! It was easy to find retro grapcis for my CRF, I went with the david Bailey kit, but this is the first retro stuff for a KX that I have seen.

Love it

Those turned out awesome. I love the sponsor choices too, KNAC isn't still around are they? I grew up with them but thought I remembered 105.5 becoming a spanish channel before I left SoCal.

I am loving it. Especially the JB and PBR! Nice work Englishman, I will try to send some work your way.

Those are super sick! Hope you don't mind but I emailed to see if I could get the same kit for my 06 kx450f. Those are the best looking graphics I've ever seen! Love the old school look. And I'm already rocking the blue gripper seat.

Awesome! I will keep him in mind if I ever get my retro project going.

Recently I had Englishman re-do the number plate backgrounds, ended up deciding the original numbers were a little too retro. We found the font that Wardy used for his big #2's and I went with yellow like the used for the outdoors. Englishman is always willing to create whatever you can dream up, feel free to have him give you a quote and tell him 'Zeke' sent ya!!

Cool

Where did you get your blue gripper seat? Thanks.
The blue gripper seat cover was done custom by N-Style. It's nothing special but it gets the job done.

It's the Yamaha blue and I wish they had sewn on their logo so it wasn't so plain, but beggers can't be choosers.

I originally ordered a blue gripper seat cover through Decal Works. They are mfg'd by SDG and IMO they look a lot more purple than blue.

After doing a search to find some pre-made retro graphics to redo my 09 KX450f and coming up short I found this topic. It was just what I was looking for. Being born in 1984 and growing up with older friends that were into dirtbikes I grew and appreciation for the late 80's and early 90's bikes. Obviously I was too young to own one myself so I decided that I would make my current bike match what I couldn't have then. Not wanting to copy Zeke, I decided to reach out and contact Sean about making some graphics. I love the loud colors of the mid 90's and decided to replicate a 1994 KX look. This is what Sean and I came up with and couldn't be happier. I hope to get them mounted in the next few weeks, and will try and update the post. If anyone is in the same situation I definitely recommend "Englishman" and LCG Graphics and will look to them for future graphics projects.

Just wanted to update the thread. Finally got around to putting on the graphics this weekend (as well as subjuecting them to a nasty muddy PA Harescramble). I haven't put on the swing arm or had a chance to get a seat cover made, but here is the result so far.
