Default Iron 883 Decal Dimensions


Prepping to paint my tank and would like to use the decal off the 883 on my tank. Can someone get me the height and length of the decal pictured? Thanks in advance!

I think you will find that image is no longer available as a decal as such, it is printed directly onto the tank at the factory, probably using some fancy modern hi-tech thingey! I recommend you visit your local friendly dealer and measure one yourself. That image has points at its extremes and you need to interpret them yourself when you have a ruler in hand!

i know it is probably printed onto the tank like you said, however I'm gonna use a decal and clear over it. I understand what you're saying about the measurement, I just thought someone might me able to help.

I'm curious, why other than size approximation (you have the tank and the picture) is needed to "prep for paint"?

Are you waiting for the decal and want to get started?

But anyways, if it will help...give me a ref measurement like the gas cap diameter and I can scale the picture for a approx dimension
