How to choose the perfect graphics kit for your motocross bike

Choosing a graphics kit for your motocross bike isn't just about taste. Three criteria make the difference between a kit that lasts one season and one that endures for years.

1. The quality of the vinyl

Opt for a calendered vinyl of at least 80 microns. Entry-level models start peeling after the first high-pressure wash.

2. The finish

Gloss for a premium look, matte for a more discreet finish that resists fine scratches.

3. The cutting

A laser-cut kit perfectly follows the contours of the fairing. This is what sets a pro kit apart from a generic one.

A good graphics kit accounts for 50% of your bike's style.

And don't forget: application should be done on clean, degreased plastic at room temperature.
