Any Debadging Tips?

Here you go. Use this stuff. About a 1/4 stick should do… on each side w/double sided tape. You can usually find functioning clackers on eBay and 2O gauge wire should do the trick.

 

If the badge is big and the glue cannot be melted in the middle, the dental floss may break.
I'll use a guitar string then (small E 009" or B 013"string).

 

I’m sure you searched for options, but most suggest heat and a sharp edge.
I’m a big fan of tee tree oil for adhesive removal

 

Have you tried shouting at it?

 

I would bet that @Fork Lock has tried shouting at it, PatW, based on his previous post about sawing on the thing for half an hour. I might even hazard a guess at what words were shouted.

Any response from the painter yet, Fork Lock??

 

Morning mate. I am not up on Speedmaster models so have linked all the ones I've found but there look to be a couple that have lugs or screws. Pick your one and it may help your quest to debadge

This is the parts diagram for the 2018 Speedmaster: https://www.bike-parts-triumph.com/...lle-speedmaster/FUEL-TANK/15/10009462027/0/15

 

@Fork Lock It may be screwed on, looking at the parts diagram:

Ahhhh...I did tell him to check.

 

Bonneville tank badges from 2016 and later are attached with screws. The screws are hidden under the 'Triumph' name which is a sticker.

Wd40 is good at removing adhesives and doesn't bother the paint

 

Apparently Carlos the jackal cut through prison bars using dental floss, so you would have got through...eventually...probably

 

His dentist was furious.

 

When I peeled off the E5 & E10 stickers on my Z900RS, the remaining glue was easily removed with liquid Turtle Wax and a piece of old t-shirt. Not saying it will work on all adhesives but just thought I'd throw this in.

 

Well, it won't work on screws anyhow!

 

Second post in this thread !
Tea tree oil or eucalyptus oil !!

 

Can I recommend a tea tree scented Phillips screwdriver?
