Some here may agree that the stickers on the swingarm and chainguard might look better just not being there. I've concluded that my 0'1 f4i would pop a little bit more without them so here goes....maybe taking them off with some tlc and a hairdryer? Then maybe some goo gone for the extra excess?

Who's with me on this one?

 

I've never done the hairdryer thing, but it might help. WD-40 works good for me. Remove the decal, and apply the WD to the adhesive. Let it sit for a while (soak in) and scrape it off with a credit card (or similar). Finish off with a WD dampened rag.

 

i got all off but the black one on the swingarm..seems to be stuck a little better than the other one

 

I used a razor blade and had no residue left over.

 

done and done....awhile ago...LOL...i also took off my vin sticker on the fame because i didn't like it....(and before the new guys scream about the vin...it's stamped on your frame up by the triple)....

using a hair dryer is a good idea when trying not to take the sticker off in little pieces as it allows the sticker to pull off easier....problem is you get the residue....i used a bunch of goo gone and got all the residue off and you can't even tell it was ever there...

some guy....i would be hesitant to use a razor blade, but i am really **** and if i knicked the paint on the frame or swing, i would be ROYALLY pissed....so considering both the hair dryer and goo gone take them off completely with no chance of scratching, that is the way i go....

BTW...VT...it's a great thing to do, you'll be surprised how a few stickers being gone will change the overall look of your bike...

 

Never use a razor

 

I used wd-40.

 

ill try the hair dryer thing...no way am i attackin my bike with a razor blade...im like you ffingers, one scratch and im royally pissed off at myself

 

Wow, while I could care how bad my SA looks (good and rashed already) i did not scratch the paint and I wasn't even trying to be careful. Anywho it looks much better without silly safety warnings and chain adjustments.

 

they make a sticker remover,, look just like a razor blade, but its plastic, my famile uses it on the trucks that run for our company. it works great
