Wow that looks amazing! I thought you repainted and had to go back and read the posts to see you removed the stickers! Really impressive, I always take paint off along with the stickers lol

Looks great. Hard to believe someone covered that paint up with all those stickers.

So the Goo Gone removed the stickers without ruining the paint. If you look closely, can you see where the stickers were (perhaps U/V issues)? Really like what you have done to the bike.

Thanks. Yup, the googone worked fine without ruining the clearcoat underneath. It has a STRONG smell, so make sure you do it outside. There's no UV fading surprisingly, which leads me to believe the bike was kept indoors or the stickers weren't that old. I just need to put on the new tires and do the fork seals and that'll be it for this older gal- eh, maybe a windshield.

Hey fellas, what to do with a beater vintage bike? Well, do a SaddleSore 1000 of course! http://advrider.com/forums/showpost.php?p=16034826&postcount=4172Trial by fire for the little SpankHawk!

Bike looks great without the stickers. Googone is one of my best friends.
