Question 600 F4i tail decal question

Quick question... is it common to remove the tail decal that says 600 F4i? Mine are gone... one of the PO's must have removed them. And many pictures I see of other bikes like mine tend to have them missing more than there.

I kind of like the look of the decal and will probably buy a couple to replace them on my bike. But it just made me curious as to why so many do not have them? Do people feel they need to hide that they only have a 600 and not a bigger bike or something? I don't have that issue if so... I like my bike

My Red/Silver has them on it, I like the look of them. The rear would just be plain silver without them.

I agree! That's how mine looks now... Plain ol' silver! I'm actually getting the red letters 600F4 with the yellow i so:

600F4i

I know it's not stock, but I feel the red will stand out more

Oh... by the way bigboi... nice looking ride! Very clean! One question though, is your rear seat black? What happened to the silver seat? Too much silver?

I like the rear decals. But I know what you mean...I've seen several without them.

I removed all of the decals. In fact, I started by removing the tail decals. And I am not at all ashamed of my 600 F4i.

I love the cleaner look without all of the factor stickers.

I agree, my tail is sticker free and I'm now looking at the front. Bottom line is what you like.

I guess I was just surprised at how many preferred the decal free look, but I agree, to each their own for sure. Variety is the spice of life and all

For me I think I agree with bigboi:

Specially in my case with the silver rear seat too... I need something on there to break it up a little...

Thanks for the input everyone! My decals have shipped... I'll post before and after pics when I apply them... maybe a little poll for fun! Have a great day!

Previous owner had the black one on it when i bought it and i just left it. My last red/silver did have the silver seat but I like the black more, flows with the front seat a little better.

I like having the decals when I had my f4 and it was solid black with no decals I got asked all the time what it was. With decals everyone knows its a f4i and a 600 don't mimd a debagded bike as long as it has stickers though lol. Check out my red/black f4i in gallery, it had plenty of stickers lol.
