Your Ultimate Guide to CRF 110 Graphics

Picking the right CRF 110 graphics is about so much more than finding a cool design. It's a real investment in your bike's look and, just as importantly, its protection. The best kits aren't just pretty stickers; they combine tough, durable materials with a precision fit to make sure they look amazing and can handle the hard life of a pit bike.

Why Your Graphics Kit is More Than Just a Sticker

When you're shopping for a graphics kit, you're not just dressing up your bike. You're giving it a personality and adding a critical shield for your plastics against roost, scratches, and crashes. The quality of that kit is the difference between it peeling off after one muddy weekend and staying bright and stuck for seasons to come. This is where a manufacturer's experience is everything.

The graphics game has changed a lot over the years. What used to be simple decals has turned into highly engineered kits made from some seriously advanced materials. Companies that have been in the trenches for a long time, like us at MotoXart with over 18 years of trading, have seen it all, adapted to the changes, and perfected the process along the way. We know what works.

The Role of Experience and Quality Materials

Choosing an established manufacturer over a fresh start-up gives you a massive advantage. An experienced company has spent years dialling in its supply chain and manufacturing, which means you get a consistent, top-shelf product every single time, backed by customer service that understands the sport.

A huge part of that is the material itself. You'll find that the best in the business build their kits using premium vinyl sourced directly from industry giants like Substance Inc. By having big buying power and purchasing this material in bulk, established companies can cut out the middleman and pass those savings right on to you. It means you’re getting the exact same high-grade product as more expensive companies, but for a much better price.

The Honda CRF110 has become a go-to bike for young riders and families across Australia. Its massive popularity has sparked a huge market for customisation, making personalised graphics a common sight everywhere from local tracks to farm paddocks.

When you're choosing a kit, it helps to know what to look for. This table breaks down the most important factors.

Key Factors for Your Graphics Kit

Feature What to Look For Why It Matters
Material Quality Premium vinyl from known brands (e.g., Substance Inc.) with a strong adhesive. This ensures your graphics won't peel, fade, or bubble. It’s the foundation of a long-lasting kit.
Laminate Thickness A thick, durable over-laminate where all finish options offer the same protection level. This is your bike's armour. It protects the printed design from fuel, scratches, and UV rays.
Precision Fit Templates designed specifically for your CRF 110 model year, cut on a flatbed cutter. No one wants gaps or wrinkles. A perfect fit means easier installation and a professional finish.
Customisation Options to add your name, number, and change colours or logos for free. This is how you make the bike truly yours without breaking the bank.

Ultimately, a good graphics kit is a combination of all these things working together to give you a product you can rely on.

Beyond the Sale: What Real Support Looks Like

But what happens if something goes wrong? This is where an experienced supplier really proves its worth. A company with a solid reputation and years of experience will stand by its product, always rectify any issues, and offer the best customer support, unlike new start-ups that may lack the resources or commitment.

Plus, you should look for the kinds of perks that only a seasoned, efficient operation can offer:

  • Next-day shipping options to get you back on the track ASAP.

  • Free design alterations on pre-made kits, like changing all the blue to pink to match your gear.

  • Free logo changes to add your sponsors or personal branding.

These aren't just small extras. They show you're dealing with a company that’s confident in its product and dedicated to its customers, making sure your CRF 110 looks exactly how you want it.

What Goes Into Your Graphics? Understanding Laminates and Finishes

Various CRF 110 graphic finish samples including gloss, matte, galactic glitter, and chrome holographic options

The secret to a tough and vibrant CRF 110 graphics kit isn’t just about the design you see on top—it’s about the layers underneath. A quality kit is like a purpose-built sandwich. It starts with a premium vinyl base and a super-strong adhesive that’s still flexible enough to hug every curve on your bike's plastics. This is the foundation that keeps your graphics stuck on through mud, pressure washes, and the occasional spill.

On top of that base goes the printed design, which is then protected by the most critical layer of all: the laminate. This thick, clear film is the true workhorse. It shields the ink from fuel spills, scuffs, and the sun. With a reputable manufacturer, all laminate options offer the same level of protection.

That means your choice really comes down to style, not how long the kit will last.

Picking Your Protective Finish

So, what’s the final look going to be? You’ve got a few options, and the good news is they all offer the same level of protection. An experienced supplier makes sure that whether you go for a classic gloss or a stealthy matte, the material thickness and toughness are identical.

  • Gloss Laminate: This is the traditional, shiny finish that makes colours pop. It’s that classic, clean factory look you’ve seen on bikes for years.

  • Matte Laminate: For a more modern, understated vibe, a matte finish kills the reflection. It's offered as a free option and does a great job of hiding minor scuffs.

  • Galactic (Gloss Glitter) Laminate: If you want to add some serious pop, this is an optional upgrade. We embed glitter flakes right into the gloss laminate, so it catches the light and sparkles.

With a trusted company like MotoXart, you can grab Matte as a free option or upgrade to Galactic for a unique touch, knowing both are just as tough as our standard Gloss.

After being in this business for 18 years, we've seen materials and trends change like you wouldn't believe. We’ve adapted and perfected our products along the way, guaranteeing that every single laminate we offer provides the same high level of protection. The choice is purely about what look you want for your ride.

Level Up Your Look with Special Print Bases

Want to go beyond just the finish? You can dramatically alter the look of a standard kit with special print bases. These affordable upgrades replace the standard white vinyl that designs are printed on, creating stunning effects that transform how colours and white areas of your design appear. These films are made from the same quality material with the same aggressive adhesive, so you're not sacrificing any performance.

  • Chrome Print Base: This option gives any colour printed on it a metallic shine. Any part of your design that's normally white will show up as a brilliant, reflective chrome.

  • Holographic Print Base: This one adds an iridescent, rainbow-like effect to your graphics. The colours shift and shimmer as you move around the bike, and white areas become a mind-bending holographic canvas.

These are affordable upgrades that can make a standard kit feel like a one-off custom job.

Comparing Laminate and Print Base Options

Deciding on the perfect finish for your CRF 110 can be tough when there are so many cool options. This table breaks them down to help you nail the style that fits your vision and budget.

Finish Type Appearance Cost Best For
Gloss Laminate High-shine, classic factory look that makes colours vibrant. Standard Riders who want a clean, traditional, and polished appearance.
Matte Laminate Non-reflective, modern finish that gives a subdued, stealthy look. Standard (Free Option) Those seeking a contemporary style that hides minor surface imperfections.
Galactic Laminate High-gloss finish with embedded glitter flakes for a sparkling effect. Small Upgrade Fee Riders looking to add a unique, eye-catching flair to their bike.
Chrome Base Metallic colours and reflective, mirror-like chrome in white areas. Affordable Upgrade Creating a bold, custom look with a high-end, polished metal feel.
Holographic Base Iridescent, colour-shifting effect that changes with light and angle. Affordable Upgrade Anyone wanting a dynamic and truly unique design that commands attention.

Ultimately, whether you stick with a classic Gloss or go all-out with a Holographic base, you're getting a kit built to handle the ride. The only question left is: what's your style?

The Tech Behind a Perfect Fit and Finish

Ever wondered why some CRF 110 graphics just pop with vibrant, spot-on colours, while others look a bit… off? Or why one kit fits your plastics like a glove, but the next one you try is a nightmare of bubbles and misalignment? The secret isn’t magic—it’s all in the tech used to print and cut the kit.

The difference between a pro-level kit and a cheap knock-off often starts with the printer itself. Nailing that perfect shade of Honda red, KTM orange, or Kawasaki green isn't an accident; it takes the highest quality machinery available. The best in the business use printers loaded with dedicated orange and green inks, letting them hit the sweet spot with those factory brand colours with dead-on accuracy.

Without those specific inks, a printer has to mix standard colours to get close, and the result is often a shade that’s almost right, but not quite—a detail any serious rider will notice.

Why the Cut is Just as Critical as the Print

Once the design is printed, we get to what is arguably the most important step for a clean, easy installation: the cut. This is where you see the biggest gap between a modern workshop and an old-school operation. The cutting method directly impacts how easily and precisely your new graphics will line up.

There are really only two types of cutters you’ll find in the industry:

  • Roll Cutters: These older machines feed the whole sheet of graphics back and forth under a blade. This movement can cause inaccuracies and scratch the surface.

  • Flatbed Cutters: This is the modern, superior technology. The printed sheet is held perfectly still by suction on a flat table, and a knife moves over the top to make the cuts.

The choice between these two methods makes a massive difference to the final product you get in your hands.

When you're dealing with a multi-piece kit like CRF 110 graphics, accuracy is everything. An older roll cutter that shifts the material around can create tiny errors with every pass, leading to cuts that are just slightly off. A flatbed cutter kills that risk completely because the material never moves an inch.

How Flatbed Cutters Make Your Life Easier

Using a flatbed cutter is a total game-changer, and not just for us. The precision is on another level. Because the vinyl is held static, the blade makes crisp, clean, and perfectly accurate cuts every single time. This means every edge, curve, and bolt hole on your graphics kit lines up exactly as designed.

Second—and this is a big one for installation—flatbed cutters allow for zero backing paper. You are not left with extra backing paper making it difficult to align the graphic properly. Bolt holes are cleanly punched right out, and the edge of the graphic is clearly visible. It makes lining everything up a breeze because you can see exactly where the graphic will sit and use the bolt holes as reference points before you even peel the sticker. This is the correct way to fit complex graphics.

The Problem with Old-School Roll Cutters

Roll cutters cannot properly cut through the thick laminate used for motocross graphics. You are left with extra backing paper, and bolt holes won't be cut all the way through, which is not how you should be fitting complex graphics. You're then stuck trying to trim the excess away or having to remove the entire backing paper first, making it incredibly difficult to align the graphic correctly as the edge of the graphic is not visible.

Worse still, the constant back-and-forth motion of a roll cutter can cause the machine's rollers to scratch or scuff the surface of the laminate, ruining the finish before it even gets to you. A flatbed cutter avoids this completely, as only the cutting head moves, preserving the pristine finish of your brand-new graphics.

Choosing a supplier that invests in modern tech like this doesn't just get you a better-looking product. It gets you one that's a hell of a lot easier to install right the first time.

How to Install Your Graphics Like a Pro

Applying a new set of CRF 110 graphics can feel like a high-stakes job, but trust me, getting that flawless, straight-from-the-factory finish is totally achievable in your own garage.

The secret isn't some rare skill; it's all about patience and following a proven process. With the right prep work and a few application tricks, you can avoid those frustrating bubbles, wrinkles, and misalignment issues that drive everyone crazy.

Honestly, the most critical part of the entire installation happens before you even think about peeling a single sticker. A perfectly clean surface is non-negotiable if you want a strong, lasting bond. Old adhesive, dirt, or even oily fingerprints can ruin your new kit before it's even fully on the bike.

The Foundation: A Perfect Prep Job

First things first, you’ve got to get the old graphics off completely. Start by gently warming the old vinyl with a heat gun or even a hairdryer on a low setting. This softens the adhesive, making it much easier to peel off without leaving a sticky, gunky mess behind. Pull slowly and at a sharp angle to lift the graphic cleanly.

Once the old vinyl is gone, you'll likely be left with some stubborn adhesive residue. This is where a good quality adhesive remover or even isopropyl alcohol comes in handy. Apply it to a clean microfibre cloth and work in small circles to break down the leftover glue. Whatever you do, never use harsh solvents like acetone, as they can permanently damage your plastics.

After all the residue is gone, the final step is a thorough cleaning. Wipe down every single panel with isopropyl alcohol to remove any remaining oils or contaminants. From this point on, try your best not to touch the surface of the plastics with your bare hands.

Nailing the Application

With your plastics prepped and ready, it's time for the main event. If your kit came from a quality supplier using a flatbed cutter, you'll notice the bolt holes are already punched out and there's no excess backing paper. This is a huge advantage for getting the alignment spot-on.

I always recommend starting with a smaller, flatter piece, like the front number plate, just to build your confidence. Lightly position the graphic, using the clean-cut edges and bolt holes as your guide. Don't press it down firmly yet! If it’s not perfectly aligned, you can gently lift and reposition it without any drama.

Once you're happy with the placement, start working from the centre outwards. Use a squeegee to apply firm, overlapping strokes, pushing any trapped air towards the edges. This systematic approach is the absolute key to a bubble-free finish.

Conquering Curves and Corners

The shrouds and side panels of a CRF 110 have some tricky curves, which is where a heat gun becomes your best friend. When you get to a contour, gently heat the vinyl just enough to make it pliable. You'll actually feel it soften and become more flexible in your hands.

As you heat it, use your squeegee or thumb to gently stretch and lay the graphic down into the curve. Work slowly and apply heat in short bursts to avoid overheating and distorting the vinyl—it doesn't take much. For sharp edges, you can heat the overhanging material and carefully wrap it around for a seamless look.

This quick snapshot shows the streamlined process our graphics go through before they even reach you.

This efficient workflow, from printing to precision flatbed cutting, is specifically designed to make your installation job at home significantly easier.

Troubleshooting Common Installation Hiccups

Even with careful application, you might run into a couple of common issues. Don't panic; they're usually an easy fix.

  • Small Air Bubbles: If you spot a small bubble, don't try to peel the whole graphic back up. Simply take a very fine pin or the tip of a sharp hobby knife and poke a tiny hole right in the centre of the bubble. Then, use your finger to gently press the trapped air out through the hole. Easy.

  • Wrinkles or Creases: If you get a small wrinkle, gently apply a bit of heat to the area. This will often cause the vinyl to shrink back and smooth itself out perfectly. You can then press it down firmly with your squeegee.

Once your entire kit is installed, it’s a good idea to go over all the panels one last time with a heat gun on low. This helps to "post-heat" the adhesive, activating its full bonding strength and ensuring all the edges are securely sealed down. Let the bike sit for at least 24 hours before riding to allow the adhesive to fully cure.

Keeping Your Graphics Looking Brand New

You've put in the time and effort to get your CRF 110 graphics looking perfect, so the next logical step is protecting that investment. Proper care and maintenance is what separates a kit that looks sharp for years from one that starts peeling and fading after just a few rides.

The good news? It doesn’t take a lot of work to keep your graphics pristine, just a bit of know-how. It all starts with how you wash your bike.

Smart Washing Techniques for Longevity

The number one enemy of a fresh graphics kit is a pressure washer used the wrong way. They're powerful tools, but they can easily lift the edges of your graphics if you’re not careful. The golden rule is to avoid spraying directly at the edges or seams of the vinyl.

Instead, hold the nozzle at least a metre away from the bike and use a wide spray pattern. Always aim the water at an angle to the graphic edges, not straight into them. This stops water from being forced underneath and weakening the adhesive.

For caked-on mud, grab a soft-bristled brush and a quality bike wash soap. Stay away from harsh chemicals, degreasers, or abrasive cleaners like brake cleaner on your graphics. These can dull the laminate and eat away at the adhesive over time. Just stick to products made for moto.

After a wash, it’s a great idea to go over the bike with a clean, dry microfibre towel. This doesn't just prevent water spots—it gives you a chance to inspect the graphics and press down any edges that look like they're thinking about lifting.

Preventing Edge Lift in High-Wear Areas

Some spots on your CRF 110 are naturally going to take more abuse than others. The areas where your boots constantly rub—like the side number plates and frame guards—are prime candidates for edge lifting.

Here’s a simple but effective trick: apply a little heat to these areas after a few rides. Use a heat gun on its lowest setting to gently warm the edges of the graphics. Then, use your thumb or a clean rag to press them down firmly. This helps reactivate the adhesive and ensures a super-strong bond, especially on those high-contact points.

This small step can make a huge difference in the life of your kit, keeping it sealed tight against dirt and water.

Handling Minor Scuffs and Scratches

No matter how careful you are, scuffs are just part of riding. Thankfully, high-quality graphics are built to take a beating. That thick laminate layer is there to absorb this kind of damage, protecting the printed design underneath.

For light surface scuffs on a gloss finish, you can often make them less obvious by gently applying a little heat from a heat gun. This can sometimes cause the vinyl to "self-heal" and make minor scratches almost disappear.

If you get a deeper scratch that goes through the laminate, there isn't a whole lot you can do. But that’s exactly what the laminate is for—sacrificing itself to save the print. It's worth remembering that a matte finish is excellent at hiding these small imperfections, as it doesn't reflect light the same way a gloss finish does.

By following these simple care steps, your CRF 110 graphics will stay vibrant and stuck down tight, keeping your bike looking its best for every single ride.

Why an Experienced Supplier Is Your Best Bet

When you're hunting for the perfect CRF 110 graphics, you’ll notice new companies seem to pop up overnight. And while fresh designs are always cool, in the world of moto, experience isn't just a bonus—it's everything.

Trusting an established manufacturer that has been in the game for years is the smartest move you can make for your bike. A seasoned supplier brings a level of industry knowledge that a startup simply can't fake.

Take MotoXart, for example. We've been doing this for 18 years. In that time, we've seen materials evolve, bike plastics change, and design trends come and go. We’ve adapted and perfected our processes along the way, which means you get a product that’s been tested and proven on actual tracks and trails, not just in a design program.

This experience also translates directly into better value for you.

The Power of Established Relationships

Long-term manufacturers build rock-solid relationships with material suppliers. We have big buying power and buy our premium vinyl directly from the manufacturer, "Substance Inc.", in bulk. This cuts out the middleman completely.

Instead of just pocketing the difference, we pass those savings straight on to our customers. It's why our kits are often cheaper than other companies, even though we're using the exact same high-grade product. You get a top-tier kit without the top-tier price tag.

The real test of a company isn’t when things go right; it's how they respond when things go wrong. An experienced supplier will always stand by their product, offer the best customer support to rectify any issues, and have the systems in place to do it quickly.

Customisation and Service You Can Count On

Beyond the product itself, a seasoned company offers perks that make the whole process a breeze. We get it—riders want their bikes to be one-of-a-kind. That’s why we offer valuable services that many new businesses can't handle efficiently.

  • Free design alterations: Want to change the colour of a pre-made kit? We can switch all the blue elements to pink to match your gear, no extra charge.

  • Free logo changes: Need to add your own sponsors or ditch the ones on the design? We’ll handle that for you, helping you create a personalised, factory-level look.

  • Next-day shipping: Our production process is dialled. That means we can offer next-day shipping as an option to get your graphics to you before race day.

These aren't just random perks; they're the direct result of years spent refining our workflow and truly understanding what riders need. With an experienced supplier, you’re not just buying a sticker kit. You're investing in quality, reliability, and customer service that actually has your back.

Common Questions About CRF 110 Graphics

When you're upgrading your CRF 110 graphics, a few questions always seem to pop up. Let's get them answered so you can order with confidence and get a look you're stoked on.

Can I Put New Graphics Over Old Ones?

Short answer: definitely not. Trying to stick a new kit over your old, worn-out graphics is a recipe for a mess.

The new adhesive is designed to bond directly to clean plastic. If you stick it on top of another vinyl graphic, it just won't grab properly. You'll end up with peeling, bubbling, and a finish that looks cheap. Always take the time to strip the old kit off and get those plastics squeaky clean for a fresh start.

What Is the Difference Between Laminates?

From a protection standpoint, there's no difference. All our laminates offer the same protection level. A quality, tough matte laminate gives you the exact same thickness and durability as its classic gloss counterpart or even an upgraded Galactic (glitter) option.

The choice here is 100% about style. It all comes down to the look you're chasing for your bike. Glossy for that factory-fresh shine or matte for a more modern, stealthy vibe—it’s totally up to you.

How Can I Personalise a Pre-Designed Kit?

This is where a good supplier makes things easy. You shouldn't have to pay a fortune for a few simple tweaks to make a pre-designed kit your own.

Here are a couple of common requests we handle all the time, free of charge:

  • Free Colour Changes: Want to swap all the blue elements on a design to pink? No problem.

  • Free Logo Changes: Need to add your personal sponsors or get rid of a logo you don't like? Easy.

These free design alterations give you that custom feel without the full custom price tag. And because we've refined our process over 18 years in the game, we can handle these alterations without slowing things down. In most cases, you can still get next-day shipping.
