Default Stickers

Have any of you put stickers anywhere on your bike. I would like to put one or two on my bike, but I'm not sure if it will ruin the paint if I want to take them off in the future. Anybody know if it will ruin the paint?

I put a "Tail of the Dragon" sticker that matches the paint on the windshield. It's small and looks pretty sharp in my opinion.

Don't put a sticker on denim paint. I can still see the outline of a sticker that the prior owner stuck on the gas tank.

I had sticker on mine. When it started looking crappy it was removed with a hair dryer, being careful not to scratch the paint. A little buff and it was never there. This was on shiny paint.

I will never put a sticker on the paint on anything. I'll put it on glass or MAYBE chrome but never on paint.

To answer your question...no I have not put any stickers on my bike.

Why would you want to put a sticker on your bike?

I sometimes put stickers on an old helmet, never on the bike or car.
