Has anyone found a easy way to remove these. They only seem to come of in little pieces at a time. Do not want to harm the paint of course. | ||

heat (i prefer riding...some may use a hair dryer) and peel goo gone to remove residue | ||

Bench grinder. No, not really. What Stealthxb said. Mine were off within 5 minutes total time, never to be seen again. | ||

Sounds wierd but I used an Avon product called Skin So Soft. Spray it on, then wait about one minute. The stickers will peel off and there will be no sticky stuff left. BTW the stuff works great as a mosquito repellent also. | ||

A heat gun and very slow peel will do it usually. | ||

if you get one corner up. just peel slow. (Message edited by rageonthedl on October 26, 2005) | ||

auto parts stores carry some sort of petroleum based spray for removing stickers etc. | ||

Brake cleaner, but be careful you don't get it on the Vin# sticker. | ||

i've always used the same high-tech approach as mentioned above... good old hairdryer up close with a sloooow peel then maybe a little WD or GooGone if needed for stubborn adhesives. btw, if you plan to 'de-badge' anything like this on a bike or car do it early on in its life or you could be left with a nasty outline once that big star in the sky has had its way with the paint or plastic. (just a hint, not necessarily applicable to little warning stickers in this case but something to keep in mind) (Message edited by typeone on October 27, 2005) | ||

Do not use brake cleaner. WD-40 or Hair dryer is all you need. | ||

I guess it depends on how long you leave 'em on. The first mods I made when I got my baby home a year and a half ago (my, how time flies) was to peel off all the stickers and reflectors and shorten the front signals... They came off in one piece with no hassle. I suspect that as they sit under the sun, the UV makes them brittle and harder to peel off. Steve. | ||

They do come off much better when they are new. But if they are older just heat them a little, they will come right off. | ||

Must be an age thing, I just removed both stickers from my Uly (only 2 weeks old) & they both came off with just a careful use of the old thumbnail. | ||

I peeled mine off when the bike was new, and then just gave them a quick once over with "Goo Gone" to make sure I got all the residual sticky stuff (glue) off. | ||

peanut butter will also remove the goo that's left |
