goof off

 

Or, saturate with Windex and let sit. Use a thick terry type cloth to rub. You can also try WD40 or peanut oil, mayo with the cloth. The hair dryer has always worked for me to get the outer layer off. The glue residue can be removed with the above or goo be gone. You can also heat and try to work a bit of dental floss under the sticker to slice off.

 

Is the sticker in the tank under the clear coat?

If you are talking about the warning sticker that is right in front of the gas filer, it is NOT under the clear.

The S that is on the side of the tank of the 2nd gens are decal type things that come right off.



I used a hair dryer on my warning sticker and it was a PITA. Ended up getting most of it off with some sort of adhesive remover I got at Ace Hardware.

The S and the stickers that were on the frame rails came right off with a hair dryer.




Good luck. Take your time, and everything should work out.

 

use a rag and soak the sticker with water, or windex. Then once you get all of the sticker off, to remove the leftover residue, use a non scented lotion on a towel and scrub.

Or if you are steady handed, you can use a razor blade to remove the sticker, and lotion to remove the residue.

 

Those stickers on the left side of the frame BLOW!
I feel your pain.
I am working on getting the last of it off (1/3 left)..

 

Hairdryer and Goo-Gone. I got all the stickers off my bike in 5-10 mins like they were never there.

 

How old is your bike? They tend to get harder to remove as time goes by and the bike has sat in the sun for a while.

I have a heat gun and found them pretty easy to remove but I did that when the bike was new. Took the stickers off my Ducati after about a year and 10,000 miles. Still wasn't difficult.

 

This.

I took the stickers off my new bike like nothing..
But my 1999 is a PITA to remove them.

 

Cover it up with a bigger sticker.

I used a razor blade and was very delicate. Took forever, but came off all together. Another trick we used in school was called an eraser wheel, it looks like a cut off wheel but instead of a big abrasive pad, it is literally a huge round eraser that spins. It peels stickers off really easily.

 

A heat gun also works but be careful around fuel lol. Many stores sell plastic blades which should not scratch your paint. Otherwise, goo gone or windex soak and patience.

 

Goo gone will remove it in Seconds. I removed original stickers from a 24 year old cr250 with out a problem with it. Goof off is great stuff too but I don't like to use it on painted surfaces. I will eat at you clear coat and paint.

 

combination of heat gun, goo gone, and razor blade worked for me

 

Depends on the sticker in my experience..
The tank one came of super easy in one piece.
The stickers on the right side (frame) came off super easy.
The stickers on the left side (frame) are coming off in tiny pieces.. And I tried heat/goo gone/ Awesome spray.

Just have to use my thumb and scrap tiny piece by tiny piece.
