Default Those nasty little stickers
I just put new black engine guards and saddlebag guards on my bike. They have those little warning stickers plastered right on the tops of them in plain view. Really look like crap. Any easy way to get them off? I started scraping carefully with a razor blade, but it's taking forever and I don't want to scratch them up either. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

Heat them up, peel them off. Lots of guys swear by WD-40 to remove the glue, I just rub it off with my thumb. Then polish with a soft cloth.

I want to do the same thing on my '09 UC. With the adhesive they put on those little stickers, they sure don't want them coming off.

Hair dryer or heat gun, use your fingernail, and WD40 or goo gone as mentioned above. MAN STEP AWAY FROM THE RAZOR BLADE!
