I am interested in the lower tank side protection in clear. Not a problem right now wearing jeans but as soon as the weather cools and i begin wearing the roadcrafter it will chew up the paint I am sure.

How do you thing the film will hold up to the heat generated by the headlights for that application? Will the heat yellow the film at all or effect adhesion to the plastic lens?

I'd like to have something on the headlights, and the forks as well, and placing something under the tank bags is a good idea to - save me some detailing time in the future (I like a clean shiny bike ;D)

Heat from the lens will not have an affect. The material is designed to handle this application with UV inhibitors to prevent hazing and yellowing on acrylic lenses.
