haha yes... i removed all my stickers minus the 2 that are under clearcoat (on the tank) using the hair dryer method.
I don't understand how this thing removes the stickers under the clearcoat with out screwing up the paint...
for a frame of reference, look at the gray stickers on the tank (not my bike):

I think what Elganja and I were hoping you meant the tapered colored stripe that extends to the tank from the cowling design. This stripe is clear coated over and we would like to remove it but dont want to repaint. I gather your able to remoce surface stickers like the warning labels and other decals off the plastic that are not clear coated over.
+1 Never thought about the paint scheme decals... Just the Fugly "Warning" decals!

A lot of people, me included, hate all the stickers on newer bikes. I've removed most of the stickers on my 02.
Gotcha.... Clean looking ride! Never ocurred to me to remove the paint scheme decals, without redoing the entire bikes paint.

did you buy that tool or borrow ? how much was it ?
Borrow if you can find one.... I paid $50 for mine.
I bet you could find one a any number of local paint/autobody shops.
Maybe work a deal to use it right there at the shop for cheap..
We use a commercial one at the job to remove the decals off of the sides of the police cars. And yes, melts them like hot butter, and they're vinyl. Even after they've been on the cars for years.
Sonny,thanks for the props & i love my eraser wheel too!On a totally hilarius & different note(this is some true s***) I went to highschool with this dude
They wont remove "clearcoated"stickers.Heres an example of what we do: We remove the stickers from the whole bike(except the gas tank) Then, make a vinyl "overlay sticker" to perfectly cover the stripe on the gastank.Looks pretty good .heres a pic of a gixxer 750 I did last week.It used to have silver stripes on it.haha yes... i removed all my stickers minus the 2 that are under clearcoat (on the tank) using the hair dryer method.

we tried this at work, the rubber wheels last for one car......... not cost effective, $25 for another eraser. Heat gun and decal remover in a can still best method if your not doing it everyday.
