Project Overview

After designing a custom vehicle wrap for S3Grafix, the client wanted to carry the same aggressive visual identity onto his daughter's

KTM race bike. The goal was to create a cohesive motorsports look while adapting the wrap design language to fit the unique shapes and flow of motocross plastics.

The Goal

  • Match the style of the original truck wrap
    Maintain strong brand recognition

  • Adapt the design naturally to KTM plastics

  • Create a race-ready look that stands out on the track

  • Keep the graphics readable at high speed

The Challenge

The biggest challenge was translating the large-scale wrap graphics from a full-size truck onto the compact, angular surfaces of a dirt bike while keeping the design balanced and visually aggressive
