Piece of cake. The existing decals came off with a heat gun and finger nails.

I carefully lined up new decals to my liking and used masking tape to hold them in place while I removed the backing:

Now watch me go crash/wreck the bike in the coming months now that I've achieved the perfection I've been looking for...

Excellent job! I just saw this thread today, otherwise I would have recommended using heat and pulling the decal back onto itself, not away from the paint. This reduces the chance of pulling up the clear. But great job!!

Now, for $600, I would have insisted on having the painter fix that screw up. That's a ton of dough for something that could have EASILY been avoided.
