Ok I have a dumb question, so bear with me.

Anyway, I want to entirely remove the factory graphics from my bike. I understand part of the trick is to use a heat gun and slowly pull the stickers off, however...

1- Is the wing logo on the tank under the clearcoat?
2- Since the plastic is yellow, is the whole bottom half of my fairing that is black actually just a giant decal?

I'd go look but I was thinking about this now and I'm at work, while my bike is at home.

It's on my 01 F4i, thx

 

the lower fairings are black with a yellow decal, from my understanding the tanks decals are under clear coat.

i pealed the decals right off my lower fairing but its brand new if they dont come up easy use a heat gun or hair dryer

 

yup, black on bottom, cleared up top...however i have heard there are a select few people whos decals on the tank were not cleared...lucky, lol

 

I think it would still look good though with out the decals and a "two tone" bike

 

if you look at my signature, i took off part of the wing...

 

do it, take them all off. as you can see i love the no decal look. top is cleard, bottom is blk w/ a yellow decal on your bike.

 

im wondering if i should do this with my blue and black honda. Has anyone seen one done or have a pic they could post.

 

So...... How do you remove the tank fairings that are clear coated without completely stripping all of the paint on the tank? Im trying to repaint my bike but the damn tank decals are a B**** to get off. I have some paint remover and tried applying it to a small area but it strips the paint all the way down. Works too good I guess and I just need the decals gone. HELP Please

 

goo-gone, heatgun, and lots of patience worked for me.
I took off the factory decals on my Nighthawk this way, and a few more that the **** previous owner had put on. It takes a while but they do come off easy with some goo-gone and a little heat gun action, use small tweazers to help lift corners but be carefull not to scratch the paint.
good luck.
