Default ugly reflectors
I have A 04 Deuce and I'm wanting to get rid of the reflectors on the forks and rear fender. Does anybody have a good way of doing that? Thanks in advance

Heat them up with a blow dryer, and when they're hot peel them off. Did it to my bike.

Peeled mine off with monofilament fishing line and then scrubbed the glue residue off with Goo Gone ... worked fine for me ...

I used a hair dryer for the reflectors and the stickers, plus a little WD40 to remove the glue goo that was left.

Hair dryer will help you get most of the glue backing off with the reflector then get you some goo gone from auto store for $3.50 and it will wipe the rest of the sticky stuff right off.
