Frequently Asked Questions

How do I determine if I need the left or right side graphic?

In the motorcycle industry, side orientation is always determined from the rider's perspective while seated on the bike. The left side (LH) corresponds to the clutch lever side, while the right side (RH) refers to the throttle side. This part is specifically for the left-hand tail section.

How long should I wait before riding after applying the decal?

For optimal results, allow the adhesive to cure for at least 24 hours before riding. If you used a wet application method, extend this to 48 hours. The bond reaches maximum strength within 72 hours; avoid pressure washing the area during this critical curing period.

For a bubble-free finish, ensure the tail section is cleaned with isopropyl alcohol and apply the graphic in a dust-free environment at room temperature.

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