It's from Vivid vinyl. Difficult to do on a piece like this, you'll need a heat gun and extra hands. Look at you tube on how to install vinyl wrap, lots of info out there. Just takes practice and patience.

Took the bike out for an hour long ride tonight, so I'm going to say it got as hot as it's going to get (until summer) and the vinyl held up well. So far so good

Always like to see different uses of products. I went a little different way on the vinyl wrap. Covered the sides of the saddlebags.

I like that!!!

Next up for me is to add a splash of color to my bike with some vinyl. I have a design in mind, and have the vinyl ordered. we shall see if I cut it nicely by hand. Going with a similar bright green that I painted my old ride. but just a swoosh following the lines of the bike.

I am a big fan of the carbon fiber vinyl as well.
You will notice it on my sled as well.
Here are a few pictures of it on my sled.

Well I was in the garage and decided to add more vinyl. Overall I think it looks great. Here are some pictures.

Ok being a Chief or a fire department I am straight up jealous of your vinyls on your bags Firemedic.

Where did you get them?!

Thanks for the kind works brother Davidson Harley.
A work in progress for sure.

Another home mod completed last weekend.
I wanted to fill the open area of the frame and help protect from road crude.
Took one hour from start to finish and not only will it work well but IMO I think it looks great as well. My dealer asked me where I bought it and I told him I made it. He asked me if i would be willing to make more. LOL A one of a kind for now and it was a simple deal to make.
