Placing decals almost on a daily basis I would advise you to do as follows:
Take a atomiser or sprayer or what it is called in English... to spray water on plants.
Fill it with water.
Ad a drop of liquid soap. The kind you use to wash the dishes.
A drop is enough.
Shake.
Spray on tank.
Free the decal and keep it above the tank when doing so.
It will probably fall out of your hands - that is ok - as long as it lands on the tank.
Remember - as long as the tank is wet and the decal has its sticky part free the tank is the best place to keep the decal (for instance when the phone rings).
Sticky part down - that is
The water on the tank will make sure the decal will not stick permanently.
Now take the decal and place it how you want it.
You can take it off again and on again as often as you like.
But keep the tank wet.
The moment you are really satisfied you can leave it on.
Now take a credit card and push the water from underneath the decal.
Watch out for wrinkles when doing this.
Positioning:
750K2 Decal - 16 cm at the front measured from the bottom front corner, first pinhole (From the HONDA logo attachment) 4,6 cm straight up. Second pinhole 4,5 cm straight up. At the rear... now this is a bit difficult since those decals are all quite different. Some are longer than others, but watch out for this: the K2 tank has 2 'corners' where the decal should be placed in. The decal should not go over or UNDER(!) this bent.
One small thing though: decals are like bread; they have an expiring date.
Using old stickers (6 months or older) might leave them not sticking enough, leaving airpockets under the decal which will not go away.
Or the decal will stick immediately to the tank through the water. If the decal sticks to aggressive throw it away. It might damage the paint when trying to correct the decal.
Ask the seller for a fresh decal.
Or even better:
BUY DIEGO'S DECALS!
(Best advice ever)
