Default Stickers on chrome

I just got my 09 Heritage on Friday, and am still amped. I would like to remove the stickers on the chrome highway bars, air breather, and other places. Does anyone have the solution? I tried some alcohol, and it will take a month at this rate. I will try to post some pics soon of my new ride. It is my first new Harley.

Heat the offending sticker with a hair dryer to soften the glue. Peel it off and use wd40 to remove residue from the glue.

as mentioned above heat and peel off reflectors you can get going with some heat and some fishing line behind them or thread then pop them right off. Best thing i have found for the sticky stuff left on the part is GooGone

Hair dryer and goo gone, just get the remaining glue off. Hair dryer works the best.
