My question is: HOW did you remove those logo's? It looks great without. Like the street sweepers also.

They just peeled off. These bikes are new enough that the double sided foam tape is still soft and pliable. Just take care that the emblem does not scratch the paint where it overhangs the adhesive. Masking tape is good here. The emblem is stamped sheet aluminum and can cut your hands as well.

RE: New pics

Lookin good!! Now you just need to get those pipes ceramic coated.

You'd have one of kind then!!

I've got new emblems to install also, when I actually have the time. It's not something that I want to rush!

Once again, the bike looks great! Keep up the good work.

I like the pipes. They go well with the lines of the bike.

Yeah, those pipes fit, especially with the tips kicked out. How about some pinstriping since you don't want to add your emblems. Check out the paint on the Thunder Mountain Sterling RM for true Bobber striping style. Just google it, there are tons of photos.

why did you take off the Harley emblem? You dont like harleys ???

My question is: HOW did you remove those logo's? It looks great without. Like the street sweepers also.

I've removed lots of emblems from lots of vehicles. The easiest way I've found is to take a hair dryer and get them nice and warm first. Then take some dental floss and slide it behind the emblem. Should cut through the double sided tape nice and easy if it's warm. From there, the emblems just peel right off. If there's any double sided tape left over, you can always use some "lift off" or similar product to remove the sticky stuff (products don't include your wife or girlfriend
