    If all the warning/info stickers that are on a car (and usually not visible externally ) were plastered all over the outside instead, and were made to be easily removable...would you take them off? I think so Mr Jimmy ;)
    Get em orf :p

    All removed. I’m still able to remember what kind of petrol to put in and what pressure the tyres should be. (Only just):D

    Generally yes, but depends on the bike. If it's something that benefits from originality then no but day to day stuff yes. Give it a few years and I'll prob be searching them down again for a 2012 Blade.

    I can nip over and do it for you in exchange for a couple of boxes of that peanut butter cheesecake that may have fallen off a van ;)

    I leave them on. Doesn't affect the bike or me riding it ..its just a bike ...I dont go in for the "look at my baby" pics or drool over it. I can appreciate clean lines etc but lifes to short to sit and pic stickers off. .

    I leave them on, purely for originality. If a bike didn’t have them, I’d still buy it. I wouldn’t buy one with cut fairings for crash protection though :D

    How can you say that when you take other oem stuff off and put mods on lol

    All that money spent on sexy zorsts, neat plates, trick levers...

    ....yet the swingarm looks like it's been attacked by a 6yr old kid let loose with a supermarket sticker gun :p

    Plus all the other bikers secretly laugh at it when you're not looking...


    ;)

    I only put the mods on in the garage; they all come off before the bike hits the road ;)

    good point. Maybe I should stop being a sissy and remove them!

    Another pertinent fact is that studies have shown that men who keep the stickers on have on average a penis 3" or smaller...
    All the lady bikers know this.......oh......and we all secretly laugh when you come out with...it's not the size it's what you do with it.....just in case you're about to type it :rolleyes:

    I can’t actually believe that is true that you all know! I thought it was a secret guy thing! I thought it was how we all differentiated who’s Peter Prodigious Penis and who isn’t!

    If you want stickers on your swing arm replace them with this. Much more useful.:D

    I like decals, everyone knows this. I have one from my suit maker on my swingarm in place of the warning/load stickers.
