Frequently Asked Questions

Should I remove the fairing before applying the decal?

For the best results with front cowling graphics, many professionals recommend removing the panel from the motorcycle. Working on a flat, stable surface allows for better control over positioning and pressure, ensuring a bubble-free application on the complex curves of the nose fairing during the installation process.

Should I replace both sides at the same time?

Yes, we highly recommend ordering a pair of decals. Even high-quality graphics can experience subtle color shifts over years of UV exposure. Replacing both the left and right side decals simultaneously ensures a perfect visual match and consistent appearance across the entire front profile of your bike.

For a flawless finish, use a mixture of water and a drop of soap to position the decal, then squeegee from the center outward.
