Anyone peel all of the stickers off?

The good thing about having it be 107 degrees every day is that it makes it easy to peel off the obnoxious warning stickers.

The bad thing about having it be 107 degrees every day is that it very easy to peel off the 500i and XCiting R stickers.

Has anyone removed the 500i and Xciting R stickers from their bikes?  Mine keep peeling away in this heat -so I was thinking of removing them and sticking them onto a sheet of velo paper in case I wanted them later.  Even though they keep having a letter or two that needs to be pushed back down - I wonder if I'll ruin them if I try to pull them the rest of the way off...

The pro method for peeling stickers is to use a heat gun which is a tool that looks like a hair dryer but much hotter.   A good hair dryer set on high heat would do fine in my opinion.   Warm stickers all over for several minutes (like 5 min or more) then peel very slowly while continuing to heat.

I've got a heat gun but didn't need it.  After riding home in the 107 degree (in the shade) heat, I noticed my 500i stickers were peeling away - so I pushed them down.  I figured the heat was doing it - so I pushed on the edge of one of the warning stickers and it came off easily.  So I took all of them off.  I've never had them come off that easily before.  The Kymco sticker on the fairing is crooked - possibly slipping, the 500i and Xciting R stickers keep pulling away.  Those stickers look ok except for when they are peeling loose.  I imagine it's close to 115 on the blacktop - because it feels like I'm riding inside a convection oven.  I might take the stickers off just so they don't fall off - and then decide if I want to put them back on after this heat wave breaks.

The raised "Made in Taiwan" sticker on the steering column bent up when I pulled it off (ok - I wasn't that concerned about it) - so I think heating up the other raised stickers a bit with a heat gun would be a good idea.  I'll do the 500i stickers first.  If I mess them up then I'll leave the Xciting R stickers alone.  It would be a warranty item if they fall off - but it looks like crap to have them peeling up.

I'm really just curious if anyone else removed the 500i or Xciting R stickers?  It seems that it would look nice - but sometimes the stickers make it look better.

***  Well - the 500i stickers were both peeling again today.  I got tire of messing with them so I pulled them off.  The one that was on the non sunny side wasn't quiy as gooey so it bent a bit.  Oh well - didn't really like them anyway.  Now it's just a question of leaving the Xciting R stickers on it.  They aren't peeling as bad so we'll see...
