I think Triumph makes them for the Tigers. Just use a little water with a little soap and a hard squeegee and then a heat gun to get the air bubbles out, not that hard
| currently on a slow Harley but will have another Triumph eventually

You can always see it and IMHO it detracts from the aesthetics of the bike. These days I'm of the mind to let the bike pick up its character marks and then if necessary ... get it repainted if it all looks too shabby.

If you can install a screen protector on your phone (without bubbles), you can install the paint protection kit.
