Frequently Asked Questions

How do I determine the correct side for this decal?

In the motorcycle industry, sides are determined from the rider's seated position. The left side corresponds to the clutch lever side, while the right side is the throttle side. This standard ensures you receive the correct part for the left fuel tank cover, matching the specific curvature of that panel.

What is the best way to remove an old graphic before applying this one?

To safely remove an existing decal, use a heat gun on a low setting to soften the adhesive, then peel it back slowly. Avoid metal scrapers to protect the paint; instead, use a plastic tool and clean any remaining residue with isopropyl alcohol for a smooth, residue-free surface.

For the best results, apply the graphic to a cool surface in a dust-free environment, using a felt-edge squeegee to remove air bubbles.
