Tools Required:
Squirt Bottle with Plain Water
Squeegee
Soft Cloth
Scissors
Clean all your tank and shroud plastics, removing all old adhesives, dirt, lint, oils etc..., Rinse with plain water and dry with a lint-free cloth.
Adjust your squirt bottle tip to emit a fine mist.
Wrap a soft, lint-free cloth around your squeegee.
Spray the plastic shroud with a Light Mist or water. Coat the entire outside of the shroud, Don't use too much water.
Remove the backing from the shroud decal, and as you peel, spray a Light Mist of water to the adhesive side of the decal.
Lightly set the shroud decal onto the plastics shroud making sure all bolt holes, vent holes, etc... are line up properly. Start at one end of the decal and squeegee out water all the way to the other end of the decal.
Remove one corner of the tank decal backing approximately 2 inches and cut off with scissors. Line the tank decal up to the shroud graphics as well as tank shape and lightly tack down the corner with exposed adhesive. Peel away tank backing and squeegee decal down as you go. (note: I dont recommend using water to install tank decal.).
I recommened that you don't ride your bike for at least 48 hours after the decals are completely installed. This gives the water time to exaporate and ensures optimum adhesion.

This method is used for applying graphics to MX Bikes, But can still be used for applying graphics to Pit Bikes!
