Removing reflectors

I want to remove the reflectors on the rear fender and front forks. I now they're like stickers but what can I sue to get the glue off? I haven't taken them off yet. Thanks!

RE: Removing reflectors

WD-40 and dental floss. Spray the areas and run floss between the reflectors and fender. Then spray more WD-40 and run it off.

RE: Removing reflectors

If no dental floss, you can also try fishing line . . . they come off easy!

i also used twine on my reflectors and tank badges, the floss and fishing line kept snaping on me.

RE: Removing reflectors

Use 3M adhesive remover, spray generously and let soak, they will almost fall off.

RE: Removing reflectors

My bike was still pretty new, but I just grabed the sides of the reflectors with a pair of pliers and twisted them off. Came off perfectly.
