Did you know?

Optimal Panel Preparation. For the most professional results, many expert applicators recommend removing the side cover from the motorcycle entirely before beginning the installation. Working on a flat, stable workbench provides significantly better control over the positioning and allows you to apply even pressure across the entire surface of the emblem.

Adhesive Curing Requirements. Once the emblem is perfectly positioned, the chemical bond requires time to stabilize. It is best to wait at least 24 hours—or up to 48 hours if you utilized a wet application method—before riding. This ensures the adhesive reaches its maximum bond strength and remains resistant to vibrations and wind pressure.

Ensure the side cover surface is stripped of all old wax and oils using isopropyl alcohol before applying for maximum adhesive longevity.
