Default Removing the stock decals/stickers

I have a 1997 CBR F3 and I would like to take off the wing sticker, the CBR sticker, and the honda sticker. I just want to change them to white instead of black.

when removing these decals is there a certain way to go about it? I do not want to leave marks or other damage on the fairings. Any help would be great! Thanks!


BTW: anyone know where to get the honda decals but in white?

Thanks bros

Hit them with a hair dryer for a few minutes and they should come right off (maybe in pieces). When done clean up with Goo Gone or WD-40. DO NOT USE ANY TOOLS. Your fingers should be enough.

+1 on the hair dryer...I also used a credit card to get 'em started when I was stripping down my F2. For the replacement ones, motodecals.com has a pretty good selection of stuff thats pretty close to factory. That's where I got mine...I got no complaints.
