• ✅ Fuel-Resistant Vinyl: This high-grade material is specifically engineered to withstand occasional contact with petrol and fuel vapors, preventing the edges from lifting or the surface from degrading during routine fill-ups.
• ✅ Factory Color Matching: Every stripe is produced to meet the manufacturer's precise paint and ink specifications, ensuring a seamless visual blend with your existing bodywork panels and other factory graphics.
• ✅ Original Factory Tooling: This decal is cut using the exact same manufacturer dies as the original production run, providing a level of dimensional precision and edge sharpness that aftermarket alternatives simply cannot replicate.
• ✅ Anatomical Panel Fit: The graphic is specifically shaped and contoured to follow the complex curvature of the fuel tank, allowing for a flush installation that looks integrated rather than just stuck on.
• ✅ Guaranteed Authenticity: Choosing genuine components eliminates the risk of incorrect sizing, off-model colors, or poor adhesive quality, protecting you from the expensive and frustrating disappointments often found with non-OEM parts.

For enthusiasts and collectors, authentic OEM parts with correct MPN numbers carry significant value, especially for limited edition and anniversary models.

Did you know?

Determining the correct side. In the motorcycle industry, "left" or "right" is always determined from the perspective of the rider seated on the bike in the normal operating position. This means the left side corresponds to the clutch lever side, ensuring you always select the correct component for your fuel tank restoration.

Availability of discontinued stock. Motorcycle manufacturers often stop producing specific decals for classic models after a certain number of years. Since these OEM graphics can become impossible to source once global warehouse stock is depleted, securing an original part now is a wise investment for any long-term owner or restorer.

Ensure the tank surface is meticulously cleaned with isopropyl alcohol before applying the stripe to guarantee maximum adhesive bond and longevity.
