Title: Emblem question
Post by: Fixxer on July 01, 2013, 09:56:40 AM: Does anyone know how the "Kawasaki" and "Concours 14" emblems are attached to the bike? I'm thinking of removing them. Thanks!

I de-badged my bike. I used a heat gun. They get a bit rubbery and are a bit tough to pull off but it worked for me. Use just your fingers and do not use any tool for scraping. I removed some small spots of adhesive that were left behind with a product called Sticker Off.

Dental floss also works.
