Look up Rapid TAC, i use that when i install graphics, wraps, films, etc. I used to use soapy water but sometimes it takes forever to dry. With Rapid TAC it dries quick so your graphics stick, gives me just enough time to position perfecty... Got a set of MotoProWorks graphics coming in for my 690 tomorrow so i will feel your pain soon lol.
Oh heck yeah I’ll have to look that up! I had the same issue with soapy water and even Windex, it would just keep sliding and sliding and sliding.. They are great graphics! Trust your lines because they are cut really well, you’ll love them! Which series did you get?
Awesome man!! Looks great. Got my kit from MPW too and I was blown away by the quality! For air bubbles, I went to Walgreens pharmacy and got a 28g injection needle. Don’t poke straight in, go at an angle and just puncture the top layer. The hole is tiny enough to not be seen but enough to let the air escape. Now get that Rotty intake and unleash the beast!!
That’s awesome! They are great kits for sure, amazing quality, good lines and a fit just pesky bubbles from an amateur installer hahah I’ll have to give the needle a try, a few people suggested that! It’s on the list!! That will do wonders for the bike and will be excited to see the difference!
Haha seriously it does, I’ve done a couple kits before but that is still not enough to be anywhere close to “clean install” haha it’s just very tedious and meticulous. I’m happy with how it turned out I think it all came together nicely!
@@LifeWellRidden i had an accident the other day and ruined one of my panels, so i ordered a new one and the graphic for it. Even for that, a big and easy panel with no fancy curves or bends had my heart going. Its such a pain in the arse! Looking to get a 701/690 next year so your channel is helping me out massively with my future plans for it. Keep up the work dude!
@@alex.crf450r that’s not good! Hope your ok man! But they are fun bikes for sure and I’m glad I could help! If you have any questions or video requests, feel free to shoot them my way! I’m always looking for new ideas!
@@LifeWellRidden once you’ve got everything sorted you just need a “sound porn” video where it’s just ripping the bike 😂 Yeah I’m all good, it was fuckinf about in dirt lol
Great vid bro!..a suggestion to get rid of the bubbles(you might know this already) use a pin to put a small hole to let the air out. Just curious as why you didn't use the wet method to instal the graphics?....air box mod next?😀
Thanks for the tip! And I feel like I have always sucked with the wet method, like I end up sliding the whole damn thing everywhere and then spend hours just squeezing out the rest.. so I gamble and then cross my fingers 🤣 it actually turned out really good after sitting in the garage in 1,000 degree heat! All the bubbles actually deflated and I was able to smooth them out! That is definitely on the list.. just need to spare some cash for that and the SAS delete kit.. maybe off season when I have nothing left to do!
Thanks man! Yeah it’s taken a lot of trial and error so I like doing test shots in my free time, honestly the best thing is to just get out and shoot a whole bunch of different stuff until you figure out what you like!
I’m ordering some graphics soon for my 690. Gonna do the blue fade with moto pro cuz the 23’ has more blue on it. Anyway, are yours glossy or matte? I think I want the matte set. Also, what stand do you use? I have so many questions as I need all the stuff.
I use the gloss ones, the matte looks a bit weird to me.. but its just simply a center stand from Amazon, the link is right here! www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HJUKB5S/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1
The other ones are apart of the plastic or at least were so flush that there wasn't a ridge so I left them on there. The headlamp sticker is like any other sticker on a dirt bike so off it goes haha

takes a huge amount of confidence to do this, I fucked mine up first time, then got it right the second. Looking like its gonna be mint

Great job.. also great job on all your videos. You put alotta time and effort into making them. Stay with it and it will pay off..
Much appreciated! Thank you!
Your video production quality is amazing! Amazing video quality and the shots have good framing. Did you figure all that out overtime?

Why did you remove headlamp sticker and not the other ones?
