I am wondering what is the best way to remove all of those warning stickers? I have managed to get one off, but the others seem to break a little piece at a time.

I used a hair dryer. The stickers came off in a few big pieces, then wipe the leftover goo off with paint thinner.

I used a Honda 11hp 3200psi pressure washer. Worked like a charm!

The presure washer just sprays them off. It took my about 10 minutes.

A hairdryer works like a charm. Use that and this spray on junk called "Sticker OFF" You should be able to get some at your local bike dealer. I just took the labels off of my 400ex, but they were hard plastic that was rivitted on. Then I put some carbon fiber label covers in the places that the labels used to be. Looks Really Trick!! Any 400ex guys want to see the picture, email me and I'll send them to you.

A hair dryer to soften the sticker ( the heat gun was too much heat, I melted the plastic in one spot ) and WD-40 to remove the adhesive.
