1971 Honda CB500K · Gas Tank Decals Buying guide
A stripe set is one part of the tank restoration. The listing separates the adhesive-backed stripes from the painted black area and the cast logos, helping you avoid ordering an incomplete set of finishing materials.
The source is clear that the large black area must be painted, as on the original finish. Its supplied stripes do not fill that area. Decide the paint layout before decal application so the kit is used for the part of the design it actually supplies.
The tank and side-cover logos are cast emblems according to the listing, rather than included logo stickers. Inspect those retained parts separately from the stripe purchase. This listing does not establish emblem contents or mounting hardware, so plan those requirements on their own.
The listing specifies white and black stripes only. The large black area is painted before application, and the logos are cast emblems. Do not expect the stripe kit to supply those separate elements.
The current supplier instructions say to record the original positions before refinishing and dry-fit both sides using matching reference points. Apply over clean, fully cured paint. Check the actual tank and intended layout before peeling the backing.
The current instructions require testing the paint, decal and planned clearcoat together before coating a finished tank. They do not name a universally compatible coating or curing time. Confirm that finishing system rather than assuming the protective decal coating establishes compatibility.
