Did you know?

Determining the correct side. In the world of motorcycle parts, "left" and "right" are always determined from the rider's perspective while seated on the bike. This means the left side corresponds to the clutch lever side, ensuring you always select the correct component for your fuel tank.

Optimizing for complex surfaces. For intricate graphics like fuel tank stripes, professional installers often recommend removing the bodywork panel entirely. Placing the tank or fairing on a stable, waist-high workbench allows for much greater precision and control during the application process, leading to a bubble-free finish.

For the best results, use the hinge method with masking tape to align the stripe perfectly before removing the adhesive backing.
