All of this is proof that Red Bull’s elite and exclusive strategy works.

You Joe Blows either have to buy a bike that rivals a car payment, be Ken Roczen, or have some knock off phillipino graphic company print shit for you...

I used to have a Red Bull hat, er rather I still do, but I quit wearing it because I got tired of people asking if I was sponsored by Red Bull. I guess some folks get off on that?
People really ask you that? The reason I stopped wearing anything Red Bull is people constantly asking me if I'm a big Max Verstappen fan Grinning

I could care less. I like having cool bikes and stuff. Having a full custom kit with local businesses on it and the red bull logo on the shroud would be sick to me... i have had people asking me why i and others pay $400+ for a helmet or a pair of boots..... when im not a pro level rider. Lmfao.

You should buy what every you want, but just remember why would a company give out sponsorships to run there logos if every one if just going to pay for sticker kits and run them for free. No need to sponsor anyone.

I know someone who bought a set off ebay last year. They originated from CR, and were great to deal with, and when they sent the wrong year/size number plate graphic, new ones were shipped. Shipping and delivery took a few weeks, but they were spot on quality.

Anybody that has been in the graphics business more than 15 minutes knows about copyright infringement. Why would a garage operation want to piss off a global business like Red Bull? They probably have a huge department that does nothing but look for copyright infringement around the world.
They haven't been looking in Thailand lol. When I was there a few months ago I saw tons of knock-off Red Bull apparel for about $5 American Laughing Laughing Laughing

There are so many small graphic company's out there that I bet you will be able to find one that will make what you want. Look for the small one or two man operations maybe that can help.

They do. A friend of mine paints helmets in Louisiana, he was doing a custom one for a Red Bull athlete, put one pic on his Instagram and within 30 minutes was contacted by a Red Bull rep who basically told him to destroy the helmet and if he completed it, they would sue. When he told him who he was painting it for, they told him to destroy the helmet then go through the proper legal channels to aquire Red Bulls permission to replicate their property in his work.

AOMC never seems like they get in a hurry to fulfill orders. I believe any KTM dealer can order the FE graphics so maybe you should pursue another avenue?

I can confirm that they are as on top of people reproducing their stuff as people have mentioned. If a company is prepared to do it, that is because they have not done it before. Once they've done it and Red Bull get wind of it, they won't do it again.

Red Bull put great value in their brand and after all these years its still exclusive, so its working. Their logo is everywhere they choose and nowhere they don't.

I've asked people about this subject because I've always heard they were super on top of copy right infringement. I asked Joe Carlino if anyone in SoCal had ever said anything to him about his graphics.

Seems like years ago I heard someone had a hat at a pro national and a Red Bull employee confiscated it, could be hear say but I don't know. When Cooper Webb was in his early teens it seems like he had mentioned it to people at local races about how crazy they were about their brand name.

I worked at a shop for 4 years. We had a guy come in with a bunch of different hats, Monster, RedBull and a few others that he was distributing. We talked to him and ended up bringing them in. Sold so many RedBull hats that we brought more in. Well, fast forward a couple weeks and we had someone walk in to get some stuff and saw the RedBull hats. Asked where we got them and we told him. A few days later we received a letter from RedBull that we needed to stop selling them or they would seek legal action. We tried contacting the guy we got them from and couldn't get in touch for quite a while. Finally he came in and got the rest of the hats from us and I have no idea what happened to him or where he went. I'm just bummed I didn't buy one before because they were pretty sweet

Lucky bastard!

Only thing I had was a RedBull sweatshirt. Forgot who made them, but they were available to the public for a short time. Wish I still had it.

Why can't you guys just accept the rules? Red Bull have a very strict stance on protection of the trademark. Let it be, show some respect.
You're all trying to run around to 'backyard Billy' to have some fakes made, only to complain about the quality when they fall off, colors... etc etc. You know they won't return your calls!
Support those companies whom support the industry. Years ago, it was cool to be running N-Style, One, or FX. You could be proud of the quality. There are many kick ass companies making proper graphics these days, maybe cost a little more, but you know the quality is right, fit... colors... all licensed.... and tested by real racers.
Be your own man, screw copying Dungey, or whoever, you go to the track, you look a fool, really.
Plenty of kick ass designs out there these days from the top companies like Decal Works, SKDA and SCRUB.... EnjoyMFG,
Forget the sugar pop drinks, time for some cool shit!

How would they get the hat?, nothing they can do if a fan is wearing one.

This reminds me of a story I heard probably 10 years ago on a skateboard forum back when I was into that sort of thing. Allegedly a skater bought one of those wool red bull athletes only hats from China and wore it to a local amateur competition. A red bull employee was there and confiscated it from him and demanded to know where he got it from. Crazy how protective they can be over a logo.

Never knew they were that stingy with the logo before this thread. After reading all these stories I expect a red bull spec ops team will break into my garage and rip the stickers off my bike... or worse Unsure

I don't know that they go after the consumer, more the person reproducing. I do know that some guy was posting photos once of his own helmet that he had sprayed with a red bull design to wear himself (on another forum) and Red Bull got wind of it and told him he could not even do that.
