Removing decals
So I was looking at my bike and decided I want to remove some of these ugly decals on my bike. I have an 06 600rr and I want to get rid of the warning decal on my tank and swingarm and maybe the honda wings on the tank. Well I noticed the warning decals dont just peel off. Is there any certain method I should use to cleanly get rid of them?

RE: Removing decals
use a blow dryer to heat them up...then peel them off slowly....after that grab your favorite de-gunker (e.g. Goo-Gone)...apply liberally, wipe off remaining glue...
if you check out my diary thread, i describe the process a little more in depth....not hard, but time consuming to do it well...

Keep away from the razors and sharp objects. Goo-gone does the job, it's a little oily so a clean towel and a little glass cleaner after the job's done will keep it shiny and clean.

I just did this on Saturday i had to use a hair dryer to apply my CF goodies since it was 45 outside..
So i went to Wally World and got one for $9.99 ( im a dude whos not into dudes, so i didnt have one handy )
it worked great, just give em 25 seconds of full heat with the hair dryer and start to peel, keep the heat on them untill your hands start to burn.. lol..
i had no problems whatsoever..
