Frequently Asked Questions

Should I replace both sides at the same time?

When refreshing one side, consider ordering both left and right together. Even slight differences in UV exposure over time mean the old side may not perfectly match a brand-new decal. This ensures a uniform appearance across the entire motorcycle and prevents visual inconsistencies between panels.

How do I remove an old decal before applying this new one?

To remove an old decal before applying a new one, use a heat gun on low setting to soften the adhesive, then peel slowly. Use a plastic scraper — never metal on painted surfaces. Clean residue with isopropyl alcohol to ensure a smooth surface for the new application.

For the best results on the front cowl, ensure the surface is meticulously cleaned with isopropyl alcohol to remove all wax and residue before application.

* If this decal is listed under multiple models or versions, the exact mounting location may vary slightly.
