Novus makes some products that might work. Maybe mineral spirits first to get the glue off?

New to the forum, eh? Stick around long enough and you'll be replacing the stock shield anyway with a better ergonomic one. Welcome aboard.

Goo Gone or WD-40. Don't rub with anything other than your finger or you'll scratch the plastic.

Default yes i am
yup, definitely new here, and to harley. I do like those short dark deflectors, but gonna give this stock one a shot for a while. I've been hiding my ez-pass in my fork back on the other bike and that worked like a champ. haven't decided if I'll go with a bracket or a shield bag for the UC. Thanks for the suggestions. wasn't sure about the stuff to use since I've heard some things are just bad to use on the shields and I didn't wanna get it wrong trying to guess.

Mike
