Frequently Asked Questions
How do I determine which side of the motorcycle this is for?
Determining the correct side of your motorcycle is always done from the perspective of the rider seated on the bike. In this standard orientation, the right side corresponds to the throttle grip, while the left side corresponds to the clutch lever. This uniform system is used across all official manufacturer parts catalogs.
Why should I choose an original graphic over a replica?
Motorcycle graphics serve as the most defining visual element of your machine's unique identity. Over time, missing or faded decals can make a well-maintained bike look significantly older than its mechanical condition suggests. Installing fresh OEM graphics is the highest impact cosmetic improvement you can make to restore that showroom-floor appearance.
Before applying, ensure the panel is stripped of all old adhesive and cleaned thoroughly with isopropyl alcohol to create a perfect bonding surface.
