If you have a good look at these side stickers you will see ( well i thought so Very Happy )they are hard to read ,poor design and VERY cheap looking . No
clear coat over the top just slapped on .Remember when they were steel and really added something to the bike , now a collectors item ?
I took off the two side ones and the Suzuki on the tail . While i was at it i took off the grab rail as well .The stickers come off easy ,just a bit of
kero to get rid of a bit of glue .Nothing like those ****** tank ones .I really like the 'CLEAN" look .

No stickers are fine, but I'm not sold on no grab rail. If you could make up something to fill the space it'd look much nicer

That sounds tricky to make it look good .I do like a grab handle to move bike around .I can put it back on ,unlike the stickers . Probably $150 each
knowing how they charge .I keep hitting the grab handle with those two lugs under the seat . Crying or Very sad

No tail stickers are OK by me not that you need my permission Smile but I wheel mine around using the left bar and grab handle. I also use the post to attach the occy strap to when the seat bag is on.
No handle does look cleaner. I wonder what other handle designs fit?

The no sticker look is cool gus

I was going to buy a pair of these, but forgot where I found them. I'm not fussed about it now. I use the grab rail all the time any way.

It has two small Suzuki decals on the rear and front, except mines doesn't have a front decal. When I had the nose fairing plastic welded and resprayed, they forgot to put it back on. I've grown to like it though, nice and clean looking, maybe I can get away with shenanigans as a non rider may not be able to identify the model Shocked Laughing

When I picked up the FA, it has a small Suzuki decal just under the screen, under the black bit of plastic (diffuser?)

*gasp* it's only taken Gus's photos of the decal removal from the tank for me to realise that the bloody bike shop forgot to put mine back on after they repaired it back in January. I actually prefer the clean look though, so it's not a big thing.
