Topic: Tank emblem removal?

[jollyroger]

I need to remove the metal tank emblems for my CB500. How do they come off?

I would have put this message in the "tanks and petcocks" section but do not have a "Post New Topic" button there?

Thanx Much!

Are you repainting the tank?  If so, you can be a little more rough on it.  I know there is a thread on this in FAQ as I used it for mine.  I used some dental floss and slide it under the emblem and did both sides a little at a time.  Once it was up a ways I used a flat knife and it came up fine.  I was even able to use the press nuts to put it back on.  Mine was on a CB750KO so I am not sure what set up you have there.  Good luck with it...

Slip some dental tape in behind and gently apply pulling pressure etc....

Now I need to remove the original tank decals that someone has painted over. Those things are on there good! Any ideas?

Thanx to all of you have sent answers to my questions. I need the help.
