Would anyone happen to have a new set of these, or live close enough to the dragon to pick some up?  While visiting my pops a couple months ago, someone (not naming anyone here) ran into the side of my car while it was sitting in the driveway and I was inside catching up with my Dad. Ughhhhh. The passenger door was shot, and given the metallic paint, there was a lot of blending that had to be done to fix it right. The sticker had to go. The S earned its dragon wings (and a whole slew of other Smokey Mountain spirits!) Summer 2017. I actually have an extra red pair of these dragon stickers, but I totally love the rising sun. Japanese, baby! I've had my CBR600 up and down that road countless times back when it used to be "only" an 8-hour drive. Nothing less than 13 hours now. I am willing to pay anyone for the price of the sticker, plus any bargaining necessary to make the deal, if you could snatch up a couple sets of these and ship them to me. I would be very gracious. Their website specifically says that they will not sell these over the internet, bottom of this page. I emailed them with a similar offer to pay whatever it takes, and got no reply. So hey, here's anyones excuse to go scoot the dragon! Thanks in advance. |

Now that riding season is in full swing, I thought I'd give this another shot. Anyone live near the Dragon and need an excuse to go for a ride?  |

I was gonna tell you to mark your calendar for the Smokey Mountain Crawl and someone would be in the area... and then I looked it up and from a glance it appears to have been changed to a different event in a different area.  |

Yeah, it moved unfortunately and the remains of the event was actually just this past weekend. That was my one excuse a year to get to the Dragon too... Matt |

Ask the guys at MNNTBX. They’re big Smokey Mountain Crawl supporters, and nice dudes as well. They might be able to help you out.

In fact the Crawl was their event, and they're the ones that moved it. To be fair, I don't think Townsend wanted the event anymore anyway, so their hand may have been played for them, but still.

Me and FatKid rode the dragon at the crawl in 2017. That was one of the best rides ever.
But I’d get a Japanese Naval Flag sticker (the rising sun with the bars where the “sun” is offset) and cut it out. Get a few in case you mess it up.

That's a nifty idea... I might be crafty and precise with an exacto knife, but that could be a little more work than I'm willing to put in for such a small thing! I'd have to cut a few and pick the best of the bunch I suppose, and possibly sacrifice the red ones I have to use as a template. Which raises another question, can something like this be programmed into a vinyl cutting machine? I admittedly don't know exactly how those contraptions work.

But... you can just use one of the millions to sticker places on the internet to make it. You gotta send them a design, or a picture or something and their online tools will crop it, die cut it and stuff. Or just order a few and hit it with the xacto. Take your time, go slow. It’ll be awesome. |

That looks more like a stork than a dragon!  |

If you can get me a clear picture of one, I can cut you some in a solid color. I have black, silver metallic and chrome vinyl to choose from.
Might be able to use pics above. Which way do you want the head to face, left or right? Or one of each?
Also, how big or small do you want them to be? (In inches)
