It's on the list...but not very high.
Take it off the list man. Doesn't deserve a spot on the list....it takes 2 minutes to remove them. My list involves things that cost money and take at least 15 or 20 minutes

I HATE stickers on bikes. The first thing I did with my bike was de-sticker it when I got it in the garage.

The VIN is stamped on the frame. That frame sticker is long gone.

Removing reflectors and stickers should increase the fuel mileage....ya think?

I just removed my air cleaner sticker. I used a heat gun to melt the glue and kept rubing. Then i used windex to shine came out great. Took about 15 mins.

Lighter fluid works great. I have a sticker phobia and take them off anything I own, ladders included, and lighter fluid has never failed to work.
Thank you, Sir. I am very glad to know that I am not the only "**** retentive" FORUM member.

is the WD-40 safe on chrome? I want to remove that stupid sticker on my air cleaner. Could care less about any others.... but the one on the air cleaner drives me crazy.

The one on my AC is AMF.
