Margaritamama Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 Oh yeah - Gotta love those Kawa's. That candle is great! We used to have a lime green Z750, and your candle brought back memories of my misspent youth...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

izzy2 Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 My nephew would love this. He races in motocross and his is a Kawi. Hmmm, maybe that would be a good xmas gift. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cybersix Posted September 30, 2005 Author Share Posted September 30, 2005 thanks!!! It's nice, yes..It could be a simple gift for a biker!! Obviously if the bike it' s a kawasaki, or the candle will fly out of the window:p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mozzie Posted October 1, 2005 Share Posted October 1, 2005 I like it! How did you add the logo? I'm thinking of personalised candles for presents with the recipients initial where you've got the K. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topofmurrayhill Posted October 1, 2005 Share Posted October 1, 2005 How can you live in Italy and ride a Kawasaki???Ducati all the way!(Moto Guzzi is nice too.)Still, I like the candle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashleigh Posted October 1, 2005 Share Posted October 1, 2005 lol i thought work was still on my mind (before I read what you typed!) I work at Kawasaki but thought huh if that was only blue and red it would look just like kawasaki! (color of our building) lolLooks pretty good if it reminded me of the place!Ash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybersix Posted October 1, 2005 Author Share Posted October 1, 2005 I like it! How did you add the logo? I'm thinking of personalised candles for presents with the recipients initial where you've got the K.I drawed on a sheet the "K" logo, then I cut it. I poured a little bit of wax in a jar topper.. when the wax was still a little warm but not so warm i put the K on it, witha knife I cut the wak following the K profile.. hope you understand what I say because I think I wrote a lot of mistakes.Then I took my wax "K" and put it in the side of a pre-heated mold, I press it a bit, then I poured the green wax. I poured at 150 but maybe it's too low because around the "K" there are small "holes" without wax. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here in Italy Ducati and Moto Guzzi are not so appreciated.. There are few "aficionados" but it seems that this motorbike have a lot of problems!! And they cost a lot!!Kawasaki is less expensive and more reliable as other Japanese bikes.Shhhhhh....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeannie Posted October 1, 2005 Share Posted October 1, 2005 I'm a Kawi fan, that looks great! My nephew would love something like that but now he is into KTM (Orange/Black). He is racing on Sunday! I still think the Kawi was more reliable. Funny Kawi has a red & blue building.....That should be Honda Anyhow, love your candle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
