Don't forget the stupidSticker on the fuel gauge

ORIGINAL: sewerat

I have always had good luck with just " grip it an rip it"[8D]

then after what i like to do is heat up the left over parts and use a credit card to gently scrape off the rubbery glue stuff, I have done this to lots of reflectors. While your at it you can get rid of the frame ones, the crash bar stickers, the air cleaner stickers and the fork ones if they haven't already disappeared.

Yup. Heat and fishing line. wd-40 or goo gone to take the residue off.

Try spraying some goo gone if before you remove and them take the dental floss and remove all done with out heat. Also wal-mart has this great stuff its a little pricey but the 3m adhesive remove is friggin outstanding. The best I have ever tried and I tried goo gone, goof off, citrus solvent, wd 40, everything and its the best.
