Frequently Asked Questions
How is the left or right side of the motorcycle determined?
In the world of OEM parts, orientation is always determined from the rider's seated position. The left side corresponds to the clutch lever side, while the right side refers to the throttle grip side. This standard ensures you select the correct component for your specific fairing panel.
Should I use a heat gun when applying this stripe?
When navigating the compound curves of the middle cowl, a heat gun on a low setting can be very helpful. Gentle heat makes the vinyl more pliable, allowing it to conform to the surface without wrinkling. Always keep the heat source moving and apply warmth after the decal is positioned.
For the best results, ensure the fairing surface is meticulously cleaned with isopropyl alcohol to remove all wax and residue before beginning the application process.
