Goo Gone is citrus based and will not harm your paint. It is also good for removing grease an oil from your clothes and other spots on your bike.

Just a couple of thoughts about removing an emblem from a repainted tourpak.

Are your SURE that the label was removed for the paint job? Most likely it was, but...

How long did the shop allow the paint to cure before reapplying the emblem? If it was put on soon after the paint job, you may have the orange peel affect or worse when you take it off.

I agree with whoever said to first try whatever solvent you're going to use in an inconspicuous spot underneath the pak before using it on the tape residue. I would not use gasoline.
