Ridewrap

[vds]

I bought custom tailored ridewrap for my new one44 hpc but it is a bit cold to install any thoughts out there.?

Also it is my first time installing ppf

I’ve always installed at room temp. Not sure about cold conditions. Maybe lay down a water resistant blanket in a warmer spare room.

Oh yeah …patience and read the instructions. Clean the surfaces with iso alcohol. (No residue)

Ermm, bring the bike inside? Or get a fan heater in the garage?

I did it inside it was really hard on the one44 plus ridewrap had 2 pieces mixed numbers .
It took me 6 hours

It too me several hours also …which includes taking some parts off. I’m sure I went through a bottle of spray water with the mixture. Some scissor cutting was necessary.

Bike shops charge a lot for this process. I don’t think a shop mechanic could have done a better job.

Yea my LBS uses an auto detailer that installs PPF on cars and motorbikes. Cost me $300 NZD (165 euro) for a full tailored kit install on my Rail. Much less swearing involved and its absolutely perfect install.

I admit there was swearing involved !!

I only swore once …but it was really really bad.

I installed a custom carbon kit on an alloy bike once. Needed a little bit of custom cutting.

Edit; if you can assemble a 4 drawer dresser from IKEA …you can do this.
