As good an answer as any

Peel it slowly and it should come off in one piece even without heat

a quick wipe with wd40 or petrol if you dont have wd40 will remove any glue left behind with little effort

I finally got around to doing this, they weren't laquered over, and came away easily with a hairdryer. Cleaned off the residue with petrol, and gave it a polish and you can't see where they were.
Thanks for the tips.

Don't heat the sticker up from the front as this will make the sticker pliable and more likely to leave th glue behind. Heat the sticker up from the inside of the fairing theis will heat the glue and should be a lot easier to remove without the gunk left behind.

Courtesy of Big Al - just spoke to him about doing mine!

That's nowt. I've just taken all my warning stickers off this morning... after 14 months!!! It was just one of those jobs that I knew would be a pain and couldn't be bothered with.

And if you want extremes, My last bike was traded in with all warning stickers intact 3 1/2 YEARS after buying from new

I don't think I'd have fit the hairdryer behind where I was removing them. They came off really cleanly - one quick wipe over with petrol and all the gunk gone.
