Frequently Asked Questions
How is the left or right side of the motorcycle determined?
In the motorcycle industry, orientation is always determined from the perspective of the rider seated on the bike. Therefore, "left side" refers to the clutch lever side, while "right side" refers to the throttle side. This standardized cataloging ensures you receive the correct graphic for your specific fairing panel.
What happens if this part becomes discontinued?
Manufacturers often stop production of decals for older models, making OEM stock increasingly rare. Once these factory-original stripes are listed as "No Longer Available" (NLA), they become nearly impossible to source. Securing this genuine part now ensures your motorcycle maintains its value and authentic appearance before supplies are exhausted.
Ensure the fairing surface is meticulously cleaned with isopropyl alcohol and apply in a dust-free environment to achieve a bubble-free, factory-quality finish.
