Yes and if you look carefully you will see that after I asked the question,
I arrived at an answer.

You mention vinyl decals, but are you sure?  Do you have a link to the decals in question?  Most decal kits I've seen are water slide, or rub on, not vinyl.

Rest assured the decals I expect to arrive soon are 100% vinyl, and nothing else.

It’s just that striping under the clear coat looks so much more finished than striping over the clear. A lot of new budget models have striping over the clear coat and it looks cheap.
I have a 2017 Z900 with striping over the clear and I dislike it very much. I try not to look at it. The striping and decals are prone to chipping.
