Frequently Asked Questions
How do I determine if I need the left or right side decal?
In the motorcycle industry, sides are always determined from the rider's seated position. The left side corresponds to the clutch lever side, while the right side corresponds to the throttle grip side. This standard is used across all official BMW parts catalogs to ensure correct fitment.
What should I do if a small air bubble appears during application?
If a small bubble remains after application, do not try to rub it out forcefully. Instead, use a very fine needle to pierce the vinyl at a 45-degree angle at the edge of the bubble. Gently press the air out toward the hole with a soft cloth to achieve a flat finish.
Before applying, ensure the cowling surface is meticulously cleaned with isopropyl alcohol to remove all wax and residue, providing the strongest possible bond for the adhesive.
