Hey all I just got my Carbon Dome S sticker in the mail and I can't get the old sticker off the case...some ideas/methods?
just drop the bike one good time....it'll pop right off....
seriously though.....it's just glued on.....a little heat, either from a heat gun or hair dryer and a flat head screwdriver, and it should come off, i think.....
well if you don't mess them up too bad I want them..
I only have one on the other was already off the bike but if I can get it off nicely I'll send you a pic and the mail it your way. Cheers
i doubt heat will do it... the engine gets pretty hot and all.
Use a propane torch...or oxy acetylene.
oxy what now?
hehe im having same problem.
I used a Hairdryer, and alot of "bug and tar" remover. It took me about four hours to get all the stickers and glue off. I would not use anything melat to scrap them off, use a plastic puddy knife, and be careful. The graphics on my tank are underneath the clearcoat, I'd let a shop do that.
I took off the case and pushed the sticker off from the inside hole. It came off slowly and then used goof off to clean the area. Took me an hour to remove, clean and put on the stickers on both sides.

that's right....there's a hole on that cover....forgot about that....yup....that's def. the easiest way to pop that sucker off....
Organdoner - they're talking about the metal decal on the side of the engine that says "Suzuki".....not the actual stickers on the bike.....thanx for the input though....4 hours sounds like a long time to take ALL the decals off....I used a hair dryer and some Goo Gone on my SV's decals they came off real easy.....took about 15 minutes....
I don't think mine has holes. At least i know one side doesnt have a hole.
