well my bike has 2 less stickers on it now...i ripped them bitches off. i felt bad but it needed to be done for my hybrid. goodbye 97 yellow fzr stickers...now no one will know what it is haha.
odd thing about removing them stickers on the fairings was the left side pealed off like you jut stuck it on...the right side pealed off and left sticky residue all over my fairings resulting in 2 hours of rubbing that shit off with wd40.

I use a small butane torch to heat the stickers up. They pull right off with the adhesive on them...

nope. it's just a degreaser/solvent not a paint thinner/stripper. it polished up the paint pretty nice also.

Your lucky it peeled off so easy. Mine were so brittle they cracked and chipped off as I pulled them. Pain in the ass.

Just make sure all that residue is completely gone.. if you're planning on putting paint on it and there's ANY of it at all left, the paint will blister. It happened on my tail section when I painted it.. I thought I had all of it, but there was some still left and when the paint hit it, man, it made some spiderweb looking blisters in the area. was a pain in the ass to fix too..\

Iill be keeping my stock lowers, they are near mint except in a few spots where it fell over. ill have those areas fixed...one day if i have money. luckly black paint and black plastics hid road scuffs pretty easy.
