Roadster decal kit: Personalise your bike with KUTVEK

The roadster is a motorcycle that lends itself particularly well to customisation. With its exposed lines, scoops, fuel tank, mudguard or rear cowl, each element directly contributes to its visual identity.

To transform its appearance, there's no need for a complete repaint or replacing numerous parts. A roadster decal kit allows you to give your bike a new style while keeping its original components.

At KUTVEK, we develop decal kits tailored to each model's shape, with various designs, colours and customisation options.

Whether you ride a KTM Duke, Kawasaki ER-6, Husqvarna Svartpilen, Husqvarna Vitpilen, Suzuki GSX or another roadster, a decal kit helps create a bike that better reflects your personality.

Why fit a decal kit to a roadster?

Long associated with motocross and enduro, decal kits have become widely popular for road bikes.

On a roadster, their role is primarily aesthetic. They allow significant visual transformation without permanently altering original parts.

Depending on the chosen design, you can either maintain the manufacturer's spirit or create a completely different identity.

A relatively understated bike can thus adopt a more sporty, racing, elegant or original style simply through graphics, colours and finishes.

The adhesive film also covers exposed surfaces, helping protect them from minor wear from daily use.

KTM Duke: An ideal base for decal kits

The KTM Duke family has an instantly recognisable identity.

Its angular lines and varied surfaces offer numerous customisation possibilities.

You can keep KTM's famous orange and black colour scheme or go in a completely different direction.

A decal kit allows profound transformation of the bike's character without altering its silhouette or main components.

The different engine sizes in the Duke range also offer customisation options suited to each generation and model.

Kawasaki ER-6: Giving your bike a new lease of life

The Kawasaki ER-6 remains very present on our roads and in the used bike market.

For an older bike, a decal kit can be an excellent way to modernise its appearance.

New graphics can update the ER-6's style while preserving its identity.

It's also a great solution for regularly used bikes showing signs of wear on some surfaces.

A new kit can completely change the bike's perception and give it a much more contemporary identity.

Husqvarna Svartpilen and Vitpilen: Customising an already unconventional style

The Husqvarna Svartpilen and Vitpilen have a very different aesthetic approach compared to traditional roadsters.

Their minimalist design and distinctive lines allow for unique customisation possibilities.

For these bikes, the goal isn't necessarily to add numerous graphic elements. A few well-designed areas can completely transform the whole.

The choice of colours, contrasts and especially finishes can enhance these bikes' very particular character.

Suzuki GSX: Enhancing the sporty character

The various models in the Suzuki GSX family also offer many possibilities.

Depending on the model and year, decal kits can incorporate Suzuki's historical codes or adopt a much more contemporary identity.

The aim is to work on the whole bike coherently, considering frame colours, wheels, engine and other visible components.

The decal kit thus becomes an integral part of the bike's design rather than just a collection of stickers.

Finishes to go even further

Graphics aren't the only element determining a decal kit's final result.

The finish choice can completely change its appearance.

At KUTVEK, various options create very different effects, including holographic, glitter, fluorescent or even pyramid lamination finishes.

The same design can produce two completely different results depending on the selected finish.

On a road bike, these effects can be used across the whole kit or just to highlight certain graphic elements.

Standard decal kit or custom decal kit?

The choice depends primarily on your desired level of customisation.

A standard decal kit lets you select an available design for your bike model and quickly change its appearance.

For more personalisation, you can choose a custom decal kit.

Colours, numbers, names, sponsors or graphic direction can then be adapted to create a much more personal design.

This approach is particularly interesting for roadsters, as the graphics must integrate with the bike's many visible elements.

Preparing your roadster before fitting

Preparation is essential for achieving a clean, long-lasting result.

Before fitting, surfaces must be perfectly cleaned and degreased. Grease, silicone or certain maintenance products can reduce the film's adhesion.

It's therefore important to take time properly preparing each area before application.

During fitting, each element should be positioned gradually to follow the bike's contours and avoid air bubbles.

Meticulous preparation directly contributes to the quality and longevity of the final result.

A new identity for your roadster

Customising a roadster doesn't necessarily require major modifications.

A decal kit allows you to evolve its visual identity while keeping its original configuration.

KTM Duke, Kawasaki ER-6, Husqvarna Svartpilen or Vitpilen, Suzuki GSX: each bike has its own lines requiring a kit adapted to its shape.

This adaptation ensures a cohesive result that truly integrates the graphics with the bike's design.

With various available designs, colours and finishes, you can create a much more personal and recognisable roadster.
