Warning stickers

[Brosh187]

Ok, anyone got a foolproof way to get those two stupid warning stickers off the bike? One's on top of the tank, other's on the top of the left fairing. I hate them both and want them off, but want the paint to stay on. Any good tips? Thanks in advance.

I used heat, hair dryer works good or if your very careful a heat gun. Once the label is nice and warm you can get a fingernail to start it peeling then pull it carefully off. Mine came off in one piece this way. Then I just used some polishing compound to removed the adhesive stain and applied wax when finished.

i let mine sit in the sun for a bit and peeled em off... there WILL be some residue (it wont take off your paint) so get some goof-off or something like that and rub it off. Just make sure to wash the bike right after you use that stuff because if you let it sit it can eat through the gel coat... but if its left on for like 30 min it wont do anything.

good luck

I used a hair dryer to heat it up and believe it or not a wooden paint stir stick to scrape off the sticker. They usually use softwood for those things so it didn't leave the slightest mark. To get the glue residue off I used Goo Gone. Worked like a champ and got all warning stickers off in no time.

Me personnally I was at first just using heat and fingernail. But then I took off all my stickers and that wasn't cutting it nomore. SO I did the more professional thing. I brought some 3m Woodgrain and Stripe Adhesive Remover something made for this stuff. I just don't like goof-off it some aggressive stuff. It will haze clear plastic quick.

Hair dryer and fingernail.....also a plastic butterknife LOL. OMFG it was such a *****....came off kinda like a scratch off lotto ticket, just no where's near as quick or easy. Finally after I got it off, Goo Gone was the perfect thing for the glue left over. It took so long on just that one, I'm gonna do the one on the tank another time when I feel like it. Thanks for the tips!

I did the same exact thing..I used a credit card to help scrape as much off as I could (credit card being a soft plastic), then goo-gone (goof off, and oops work too) to remove the residue.

I used the hair dryer, wood paint stir stick, and good'ole WD40. Only took me about 15 minutes to get them all off, then since I was already at the gas tank, I used a clean rag dipped in gas to get the glue off, quick wax job and that was that.

Use a hair dryer or heat gun, warm it up and peel it off. It is that simple.

hit it with a hair dryer or heat gun an use a plastic putty knife an lightly get a spot that u can grab then pull it with your fingers with the plastic putty knife if u do scratch it it should only be a surface scratch and you can use rubbing compound (haven't messed it up yet) but be careful not to get it to hot because u run the risk of bubbling the paint, my way of doing this is keep a bare hand or finger on the plastic near the sticker so that u can feel the heat if its to hot for your had its to hot for the paint an its time to let up a little
