They're a bit pricy at $49+, don't you think.

I'm not sure how theirs work out as there is no way to guarantee that the end user is going to be able to apply them perfectly.

The letters are pretty close together and really would need to be applied essentially one at a time, which is time consuming and may not provide the desired end result. I tried a few local bikes and it was a royal pain in the ass - the best way to change the lettering on the tank is to have it repainted and then apply graphics over the top so they can be removed/changed in the future. If you don't want to repaint the entire tank, you may be able to sand in the area of the original sticker just enough to get through the clear coat, remove the stickers (hopefully the paint underneath isn't blemished), and then have the entire tank sanded and re-cleared.

I'm going to stay away from the tank overlays as they are likely to cause more problems than they are worth.
