Sun, What Sun, its 11 Degrees here.

But back to the thread, I think I will remove mine as well, Too much time, and not warm enough to ride will get you bored in a hurry.

I like my "S"....hmm. I even thought if I do a factory repaint I'll
get the guy to paint the S on the tank.

The only thing that I don't like is it keeps catching my cleaning
towels and loves to cares wax in all it's deep dark little cracks

Break out the grinder. Hit something else with it.

Outtahand, I tried the grinder just like you said, well, i used a dremmel since that's all i had. it took the S off but it scratched the paint really bad.

























Just kidding, im not that retarded.. LMAO

I was just saying it can be fun to rip something up with a grinding wheel.
Dremel's ok, I prefer a fordham flex shaft, but that's because I'm a girl and my hands aren't very strong.

There's a band named Babyland that I've seen a few times. Some of their songs are played with a grinder on empty 55 gallon drums. :laugh: Junk Punk!

Just thought I'd give you an alternative to defacing your baby. :dunno:

I removed mine with a heat gun and some patience; not hard at all...
