So should I bury my decals in clear or not? These decals are not coming off unless I repaint the bike down the road, so would it not be better to bury them in the clear coat?

I would...and I do all the time...keeps the corners from getting caught on microfiber rags and peeling them back, especially on decals with fine points....

Clear the ones you want to stay like the S emblem and not the others. My S outline is painted over and cleared. Looks pretty cool

FARG !! Got my GSXF decals on and hit hem with some clear. First coat they wrinkled up and had me pretty pizzed, but as the coat flashed they laid back down. Only problem I ended up with was that the sharp points on the gold F lifted and are poking up through the clear. Guess I'll be sanding and shooting alittle more clear.2000 Katana 600

That sucks man.. I feel for you. I would say not to clear them. Once they become too worn for you, you can remove them and put on another set. More business for Shifty. Also, if you decide to repaint again for some reason, it will be easier to prep if you don't have to get past the cleared decals. My $0.02-2000 "750"

Ya, I don't plan on taking them off until the day comes I repaint the bike for something new and exciting, then sandblasting will take care of the decals.2000 Katana 600

As a matter of fact, they were the chrome and gold chrome ones you had made up for me ...... awhile ago. I think all will be good, I was able to shave the clear down under the points with a razor blade and lay them down. A couple of dabs of clear and a good polishing and no one will see it except me.2000 Katana 600
