Factory 3A Decal / KTM Superduke 1290 17-19
Our KTM Superduke 1290 decals are a very special kind of sticker.
The decal arrives as individual parts cut into suitable shapes - so you only have to orientate yourself on your fairing parts and applying is very easy.
In contrast to complete wrapping, as you might know from cars, the stickers do not have to be pulled and then cut, but fits directly.
You will always see parts of the fairing parts, because with our special film thickness (0.8 mm) it would not be easy or even impossible to apply all the edges.
The product picture comes very close to reality.
Due to the high quality of the stickers, the decal is not just a visual highlight - it also protects your fairing parts from wear (rub by boots, knee protectors, etc.).
We match all brand-specific colors (e.g. KTM & Husqvarna) with 98% accuracy - so you don't have to worry that the decal colors are different from the motorcycle.

Look:
The look of your decal is determined by the type of the laminate - you can choose between high-gloss, matt or structured laminate.
Each decal gets an individual look that is unmistakable. Take a look at the sample pictures and then decide what suits you best.
Rim sticker:
A decal alone is not enough for you and you want to exploit the maximum design potential? Then our rim stickers are exactly the right choice for you!
Fork sticker WP:
Stone chips on the fork tubes are not uncommon and very unsightly. Protect your fork tubes with clear WP logo fork stickers - protection and style in one.
Fairing parts:
If you don't feel like applying the decal yourself or just want a new set of fairing parts, you can easily order them too.
Your sticker set will then be delivered applied onto original KTM fairing parts. All parts that are not easy to exchange, you have to apply yourself. For many models there are different colors that give your decal set even more individuality.
Here you will find all information about the material of our motorcycle decals
When you think of "stickers", of course, quite ordinary stickers or foils for full vehicle wrapping come to mind. Since these materials are usually very thin and difficult to process, the mere idea of wrapping an entire motorcycle causes sweating. But don't worry - the multi-layer film structure has been specially developed by us for the use as motorcycle decals and has been continuously optimized over the course of 8 years. A special acrylate adhesive with a honeycomb "RapidAir" pattern is used as the basis for optimum adhesive strength on PU plastic parts. These channels make air inclusions in the decal a thing of the past and the film can be easily applied, even for inexperienced hands.
The UV-resistant eco solvent print, which is characterized by a brilliant print image and long color trueness due to its special composition, is applied to a matt, very dimensionally stable vinyl film. Due to the mat base, all printed details come out very nice.
Our multi-layer film is completed with the "heart" - the 0.4mm thick protective laminate! The laminate ensures a long durability of your stickers and is very resistant to external influences. This way, your fairing parts are ideally protected against scratches or fading - style and protection in one! Due to the total thickness of approx. 0.8mm, it is practically impossible to get wrinkles or creases in the decal when applying.
"Rapid Air" honeycomb pattern - air conclusions are "passed on" through these small channels and can thus be simply stroked out without removing the film.
ECO Solvent Print
Our 9-color, dual printhead systems based on ECO solvent base fulfill the highest requirements for modern printing technology.Compared to conventional 4-color single-head systems, the advantages are clear:
- higher color accuracy
- representation of filigree details can be realized
- more stable color pigmentation
- no color casts with gray tones
- pure gray - faster drying times, therefore no evaporation under the laminate layer
Our printing systems are replaced or updated annually in order to always guarantee the highest standard of printing access.

What do I need for application?
For an optimal result you need:- hair dryer (hot air or normal household hair dryer)
- a clean rag/ cloth
- brake cleaner
It is often shown that decals should be applied with a so called "squeegee", as in e.g. a full cr wrap. Since the film has completely different thickness than other wrapping films and the plastic parts are very "oganic" shaped (many bends, arcs, etc.9, you can only work felxibly with a squeegee to a limit extent. We recommend applying, purely with your handy. This means that the film can optimally adapt to the surfaced when it is applied.
Preparation
The preparation of the parts is crucial for the subsequent adhesive force - you should work very carefully here to achieve a nice end result.
1. Spray the plastic parts properly with brake cleaner.
The alcohol in the brake cleaner degreases & cleans the plastic partle.
2. Soak the rag with brake cleaner as well.
This will ensure that everything in the parts has not evaporated by the time you come to wipe it off.
3. Now rub the part until the surface is sligthly matt.
When the parts become matt, the greasy layer of the plastic parts has been removed and an ideal base for the decoative adhesive has been created - similar to sanding before painting.
4. This is where the hair dryer or hot air dryer is used for the first time. If you use a normal household blow dryer, just set it to teh warmest setting. With a hot air dryer please be sure to use up to max. set 90 °C.
5. Now briefly warm up the plastic parts so that they are lukewarm.
Make sure not to blow-dry in one place for too long.
6. Now carefully heat the decorative film until you notice how it beomes softer (ATTENTION: do not blow-dry too soft, otherwise the shape can warp). If the film is soft, it is much easier to stick it around curves and corners.
Start right
Before you remove the backing paper rom the adhesive side, the best thing to do is to position the decal on the part to be applied - this will give you a better feel for the shape.
1. Now peel off about 1/3 of the backing paper and fold it flat.
The sticker is easier to align on the part if not everything is already sticky.
2. Position the sticker in the plastic part.
Make sure that the sticker is correctly positioned at the other end. Now lightly press the side with the free adhesive and check whether the direction ist correct.
3. If the position is correct, then press the adhesive surface on until everything is firm.
Thaks to our "Rapid Air" technology, bubbles under the film souldn't be a problem.
Always stroke from the center outwards.
4. Now loosen another part of the backing paper and stick on little further. You can always remove the rest of the backing paper in between, so you don't have any annoying scraps of paper in your hand.
5. Align the film again and again when sticking to make sure that you do not run over edges. You can decide for yourself how much of th backing paper to remove and apply - either a lot of small steps or a few large steps - depending on what you think you can do.
6. If the direction is right, the press everything down again and spread out until thentire part is applied.
Went wrong?
It can happen that the last piece doesn't fit as it was positioned. Thanks to our flexible acrylic adhesive, the film can be easily realigned.
1. If a spot doesn't fit, simply lift the film again - if possible, generously so that there is enough pace to adapt, so there are no creases. Please peel off the film only when it is cold to avoid warping.
2. Now pull the film into the correct position, adding a little heat if necessary to make the film oft and therefore pliable.
3. If the positon is correct, then press everything back on and spread out. If wrinkles form after a short time(e.g. on strongly curved surfaces), heat them up again and smooth out until they do not come back.
Finish
If the applying worked well and the deyal fits the way you igamine it, then it's time for the finish. This last step is important in order to fully activate the adhesive and thus give your decal the optimum adhesive force and thus durability.
You start by heating the entire part again. When everything is well warmed up, press the entire area again firmly with your fingers. The adhesive is activated by adding pressure and heat.
For a perfect result, you can repeat this step again with all edges. This ensures that the corners stick well and cannot be easily lifted by external influences (trouser seams, boots, steaming too close, etc.).
Don't be afraid of difficult parts.
If you are sticking a part with stronge bulge/ indentation, it is important that the film is applied without "tension".Tension arises when the film e.g. is stretched over recess and then pressed on. The foil sould always be placed very lightly in the recess.
Everything else should be firmly applied to the edge. From the beginning, the decal sould be spread in one direction but not yet completely pressed on.
When the upper part is in place, the film is first turned into one ...
... then streaked in theother direction. In this way you avoid that it is already fixed in the middle and cannot be worked into its shape without tension.
If everything is tension-free, you can heat the film and press it on - so it should last for a long time without peeling off again.
