Re: take off the R6 logo? HOW?

Ride the motorcycle for a while, the plastics will heat up, then try to peal the decals off.. if that doesn't work, try a blow dryer.

Warning: Taking the decals off takes TIME and PATIENCE, so I would think long and hard before you start.

What's wrong with goof off? Or will that just eat the plastic?

Goof off will eat up the plastics.

Just get a blow dryer and heat it up and they should come nice and smooth.

Re: take off the R6 logo? HOW?

Yup, blow dryer is the way I think I would go. But why do you want the R6 gone? You plan on placing GSXR on there or something?
