This may sound weird but

Maguries quick detailer does a great job taking off sticker goo. This is about all the Bonnie gets beyond cleaning during a repair, or the yearly bath.

Mine was put on crooked. All the more reason to take it off.

I peeled my sticker off before I rode away from the dealership,then licked my thumb and rubbed off the residue. Just peel that sucker off before the sun gets to it,and it comes right off.

Just think,35 years from now,when people are restoring these things,those stickers will be going for 50 bucks a pop on ebay.


Cheers!
Bruce

Easiest and cheapest way to move sticker residue, ordinary houshold furniture polish, ie pledge/Mr Sheen, spray on, rub it in wirh your finger, leave for a minute and then wipe off, works every time.

Is that for you or the Bonnie? Or do you both take your annual plunge together? LoL

Stickers

Just a little WD 40 on a rag after you get most of it off. There are other little stickers all over, but it got them off easy.

Talking Stickers

I have several on my bike

1, On seat "Sit here"
2, Clutch lever "Pull here"
3, Exhaust pipes " Hot"
4, On bars - pointing down to road ">>> Don't go here at speed>>>"

Anybody else got more?
