Absolutely amazing customer service. We ordered custom graphics and the designer made sure we had the correct files. Graphics came out just as expected. Extremely fast turn around and shipping. Easy application with the tool provided. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!

I searched the internet far and wide and couldn't find a gas tank graphic for my older Yamaha dirt bike. I discovered BikeGraphix, called their customer service, and they designed me exactly what I was looking for. I had the new stickers in less than a week and the bike really looks great. The perforated tank stickers are very thick and look like they will not bubble like the old stickers did.

Hands down the easiest graphics experience I’ve had in the 18 years that I’ve been riding. Sarah was super easy to work with and the turn around time was amazing from design to my hands in 3 days. Cuts are great and are super easy to lay. Definitely would recommend to anyone looking for a new set of graphics to give them a try.

How To Apply Number Plate Backgrounds and Graphics

Before you start

Inspect your plastics, if they are scuffed and scratched or have major damage it may be worth looking at replacing them. Before applying motocross graphics kit your dirt bike plastics need to be in a reasonable / excellent condition.

For installation you will need:

– xacto knife / scissors;
– hair dryer or heat gun;
– degreasing agent or alcohol-water mixture;
– squeegee

Wash your hands. It is very important to have clean hands while you are preparing surface and working with graphics. Oily / dirty hands will reduce the ability of your graphics to adhere.

Preparing surface

Remove old graphics. You can use hair dryer or heat gun to warm the old graphics for easy removal. Clean the surface with degreasing agent. You do not want to leave any glue residue from the old graphics, oils or dirt. Your dirt bike plastics should be warm before applying graphics. We recommend you to keep plastics in a room with temperature more than 60 ºF for several hours.

Applying graphics (watch video)

Peel the backing paper away from the background until it is completely removed. Place your decal over the plastic (e.g. number plate) and line up the bolt holes. Re-check your alignment on the part to be covered. Touch one side of the graphic with your finger to place it.

Working in small sections, use your thumb (or squeegee) to apply pressure to the graphic being careful not to get any wrinkles or bubbles. You have to work from the center out. If you get bubbles, carefully peel the section up and try again. Use the safety pin to pop any small air bubbles. Then smooth out the bubble section moving towards the edges of the graphic. Repeat process to the other side of the same decal.

If you have sharp curves in your plastic (e.g. number plate over exhaust pipe), use heat gun to heat the graphics so they are more pliable. Be careful not to overheat!

If needed – cut off excessive sections or sections of the graphics that are covering bolts, access holes, or vent slits – we suggest to use an xacto knife.

Installation tips

Take your time and be patient!

For several hours before installation, keep your dirt bike or plastics in place with temperature more than 60 ºF for several hours.

Wait at least 24 hours before riding to make sure proper bonding is achieved.[/cs_text][/cs_column][/cs_row][/cs_section][/cs_content]
