If you look at my avatar, pretty much where you can see, I'm gonna take the Vstrom off and it will cover most of that area between the black plastic thing at the bottom and the first kink:D

just had a look at it, still loads of little bubbles, if they are still there in the morning I'm gonna have to try and redo it.

I think that down pipe is well beyond polish Lee, should be able to put heat restistant paint on though?

I think I did it too quick and also should have warmed the area up first, also couldnt get the pannel off so it was awkward, I just posted on Vstrom forum so i can take the pannel off and make it easier.

Did you use a weak solution of soapy water ?

Spray on to area were sticker to be laid.

The water allows you to slide sticker to slide into position squeezy the bubbles out.

leave a few hours to dry job done.

well would you believe it, I had one decal left so thought, what is there to loose and stuck it on my tank. It went straight on, not a bubble in sight (yet). The only difference is the panels were plastic and the tank is metal but surely it shouldn't matter??
