1200 DVT Pikes Peak Conversion Started

Discussion in 'Multistrada' started by sparky boy, Sep 29, 2016.

  1. Well we started 'converting' my 1200S into the Pikes Peak model this evening using a Vulturbike graphics kit. It's a slow process but the results so far are looking good so I thought I'd share a couple of pics. Hoping to have the graphics finished tomorrow evening, then I've got to get the belly pan and pillion footrest hangers powder coated black.

  8. Looks top draw! Would be interested in any information re the decal kit, is it applied like a ventureshield kit, I.e with loads of water or is it a dry fit kit?
     
  9. No instructions were supplied with the kit, so we had to do it by trial and error. Some YouTube videos show the use of a soapy water spray so we tried this first. Wrong! This kit has to go on dry, with delicate use of a heat gun for the curves and corners. Heat is your friend, but it can also be your enemy. You also need the patience of a saint!

  11. Looks great !
    Is it one of the decal kits from eBay ?
    Could you give a link
     
  12. Yes, got the kit from eBay but it's made by Vulturbike in Italy. They aren't always on eBay but just search for 'Multistrada 1200 decal sticker' and you should find it easy enough.

  15. Yes, and pillion foot rest hangers. And Corse badges front and rear. Dunno about the carbon yet...
