Default Two part question.
I just removed the stock seats and put a Brawler Solo seat.
How do I remove this plastic? I imagine it will leave a glue type film once its removed, what do I use to clean it? Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Peel it off and then Googone or Goofoff. Might help if you heat it gently.

Goo Gone should work fine. I've also used De-Solv-It. It's sold mostly at marine stores. Only difference between it and goo gone is it is all natural and seems to wipe off a little easier than goo gone.

And then replace it with something else or your paint will suffer. I use elcheapo window tint under the seats. Primitive, but its cheap and it works.

Loctite makes an adhesive remover in an aerosol can that works really good too. I like it better than either googone or goofoff.
