How retro graphics fit the 500 EXC-F
Where the pattern shows best on this bike, panel by panel.
Tank-side covers / shrouds
Use a wider tank-side colour field and restrained fork-guard accents to balance the long enduro silhouette. Off-white or cream bases sell the vintage look.
Headlight mask
Keep the 500 EXC-F lamp lens and mask openings clear. Artwork belongs on the surrounding plastic, not across the light.
Rear side panels
Place a short name or number on one continuous 500 EXC-F panel. Keep letters away from fasteners, panel gaps and the seat edge.
Color ideas for a retro 500 EXC-F
Retro starter
The palette the retro kit opens with.
KTM stock match

Design tips
- Keep stripes parallel and evenly spaced.
- Use a classic block font for your number.
- On the 500 EXC-F, the tank-side covers / shrouds carry the most artwork, so check the pattern there first.
Installing on the 500 EXC-F
For the 500 EXC-F, first match the installed plastics and the printer's cut-line file. Keep vinyl away from the four-stroke engine and exhaust header, vents, access openings and moving parts. Follow your vinyl supplier's preparation instructions.
