We'll remove it from your shoulder just like we removed the goo residue from your new car after removing the stupid dealer logo." Anyway, I've used it for every and will continue to do so.

OP, the Goo Gone works and wont damage the paint if you remove it quickly. Be diligent Grasshopper.
Bet you are getting more glare from that stock gas lid. Here in Florida the sun can even make the asphalt glare. I dont have the 'sun glare' problem any longer since I removed the stock gas lid.
Put a "Live to Ride' cover on (as I did on my '95 Ultra, back in 96). It was the theme I was looking for anyway. To each his own!!! There may well be many other options.
