1973 Honda CB500K · Gas Tank Decals Buying guide
The product’s contents note prevents a common misunderstanding: a black area shown within the stripe layout is not a supplied panel sticker. Keep the painting and emblem requirements separate from the purchased stripes.
The description says the large black area must be painted before applying the stripes. Pass that distinction to whoever is doing the tank work. The kit is not a shortcut that supplies the black field as another adhesive-backed panel.
The listing gives a CB500K application, but a swapped or modified tank still needs a layout comparison. Review its shape and the intended finish alongside the stripe product. If the layout is uncertain, confirm the application before buying finishing materials.
The large black inner field must be painted before stripe installation, and the current FAQ requires fully cured paint. The white-and-black stripe set does not fill that field. Complete the paint work before dry-fitting and exposing the stripe adhesive.
The listing specifies white and black stripes only. It explicitly separates those stripes from the large painted black area. Do not use the appearance of the catalog layout to assume another panel or logo decal is included.
Record the original stripe locations and dry-fit both sides with matching reference points on clean, fully cured paint. The current instructions also require testing the paint, decal and any planned clearcoat together before coating the finished tank.
