Yep, WD-40 softens them right up.

I should have expected this... I'll get pics posted as soon as my hand heals from surgery. Had tendon reconstruction (in the off riding season  ;) on my left hand. It's all bandaged up right now. 6 weeks total to recovery but the surgeon says 100% functionality of the hand. Ruptured pulley tendon... had to take a graft from my left wrist area. Blah, blah, blah.... can't wait to get back in the saddle.
Gary, wait till you see the chrome that came with this thing....  ::)

You just need a little patience, a hair dryer and some WD40 for the left behind glue. I think taking off the stickers was the very first modification I have done to every bike I have owned!

You can by label remover at your local hardware store. It'll come off in a flash.

Stuff is very effective in removing sticker residue and lots of other crap.
