Hi and Welcome to PSG

The problem is the graphic you designed was not designed for the dirtbike
You could try using the Warp tool in Free Transform mode but it's just not going to fit correctly, you could do some cloning as well.

hello and thanks for quick reply
the design is for the actuall bike, but its 2D and in reality it bends around corners and so on,

therefore i can not just put it on top, i have to somehow transform it and reshape it so it fits

Hello and welcome to PSG.

In addition to Ged's suggestion, you can try displacement mapping.
