Tank... fugetaboutit,... they're under the clearcoat... if you do take them off, you'll need to reapply clear, or live with it... Not the best news,... I know... |

Title: Re: Tank and Side Decal Removal? Post by TheSnakeLady on 01/13/11 at 03:47:52 This helped me, just be aware that at the age of your bike, the paint has likely faded and may have an interesting contrast under the decals. I don't know if it'll help with your tank tho. http://suzukisavage.com/cgi-bin/YaBB.pl?board=tech;action=display;num=1181828138 |

The safety warning sticker on my 2007 was not under the clear coat, it came right off. |

Title: Re: Tank and Side Decal Removal? Post by PerrydaSavage on 01/14/11 at 01:21:00 Tank side decals; 2004 and earlier LS650 models (Savage) ... under clear coat ... not so easy off :( 2005 and later LS650 models (S40 Boulevard) ... raised, plastic chrome, embossed logo ... easily removed using a bit of dental floss carefully worked under to loosen adhesive ... use sawing motion back and forth to gently remove. Clean up left on residue with WD40 as suggested. |
