Frequently Asked Questions

What makes OEM decals superior to aftermarket alternatives?

Genuine OEM decals are manufactured using automotive-grade cast vinyl and factory color-matched inks. Because they are produced using the original manufacturer's die tooling, they provide an exact fit and color consistency that aftermarket replicas simply cannot match, ensuring your motorcycle looks exactly as it did on the showroom floor.

Is it better to remove the fuel tank before applying the stripe?

While not strictly necessary, many professional installers recommend working on a stable, eye-level surface for complex graphics. For the best results with a fuel tank stripe, ensuring the surface is perfectly clean and at a comfortable working height allows for much greater precision during the alignment and application process.

Ensure the fuel tank surface is cleaned with isopropyl alcohol to remove all wax and residue before applying the stripe for maximum adhesive bond.
