    I'm thinking of getting a new bike and wondering if any dull looking kits can be got.

    Plain matt black or something to make it less desirable looking to bike thieves.

    And can they be removed when selling the bike on later without leaving any residue or trace on the OEM paint and graphics?

    you could buy bright pink vinyl wrap ,might put the scrotes off !!! not sure any dull graphics would put them off really.

    There might be bike specific graphic kits available. You could get onto a printing company, someone like Wrapco - might be able to sort it for you.

    What bike is it ? Most little scrotes will know the models they want and "hiding it" behind a wrap wont help.

    You're right. It probably wouldn't stop them. You can't park a bike in Dublin anymore.

    2 Canadian guys touring on crf300's had both bikes robbed from a dublin hotel underground car park recently.

    Luckily both were found due to having trackers installed.
