| hello all
on the right side the plastc sticker is starting to peel on one corner. its still quite small but I would like to prevent any further peeling. What do you suggest? can I use standard superglue to stick it back on? or what method/glue should I use?
Thanks | |

| I'd trim off the peeled-up portion, clean the whole thing well, then cover the whole sticker with clear vinyl called "clear nunberplate backgrounds", sold at shops that know motocross and off-road bikes. | |

+1. But why not treat yourself to some nice new custom graphics instead??? | |

Bike is still brand new and since my dad bought it for me, sadly, I should wait for a while before doing any kind of mods (even visual) except for handguards, bashplate and rack (he believes in stock bikes). But I ain't complaining, I did get a brand new bike for my graduation I think I will try superglue for now, if that does hold long, I'll try that clear vinyl stuff | |

| careful washing it then... high pressure hose will rip those stickers right off. | |

| Just me, but I would NOT use superglue.
And if your hose has enough pressure to remove factory stickers, I'd be much more worried about using that kind of pressure on many other parts of the bike.
