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 right side corresponds to the throttle grip side, while the left corresponds to the clutch lever side. This standard ensures you are selecting the correct stripe for your specific panel as indicated in the factory catalog.
Should I use a heat gun during the application process?
On compound curves, applying gentle heat (between 80-120C) from a distance of 15-20cm can help the vinyl conform to the fuel tank's shape. It is important to keep the heat gun moving and only apply heat after the decal is placed to avoid over-stretching the material.
For the best results, use a felt-edge squeegee and work from the center outward to ensure all air bubbles are removed during the application process.
* If this decal is listed under multiple models or versions, the exact mounting location may vary slightly.
