    I've debadged all my recent bikes when I can. I think it looks cleaner, it is easier to clean and it is my bike. If Honda wants me to be a mobile billboard they should send me a check once a month. However, I haven't done the F6B yet. I'm a little gun shy after hearing all the paint horror stories. Maybe I'll get brave this weekend.

    All you need is your wife's hair dryer and some dental floss. Then follow up with fine rubbing compound and a coat of wax.

    Only use rubbing compound if you want to actually remove some paint. I used Googone to remove the sticky residue off the paint and then just cleaned and polished with liquid glass.

    Just two weeks ago, I was at the Harley dealership again. 5 of the employees came out to look at my bike. Ask me to start it up and show them all the goodies. I'm guessing they won't get a Christmas bonus this year from the boss!
    how dare you corrupt the sheep ! that's some funny s#1t. actually, the Harley bunch is thrilled to see something new and different, or at least it seems that way at the local dealer in Cartersville, ga. I just wonder if only one employee would ever come look [ you know there bad to run in packs]
