hoghead Posted May 13, 2010 Share #11 Posted May 13, 2010 I have two (2) sets. There is no adhesive on the back but I don't need them. I can throw some 3M tape in however. I went for the browless look. hh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rowdy7 Posted May 13, 2010 Share #12 Posted May 13, 2010 How did you take your eyebrows off? I have been thinking about doing the same thing but I don't want to foul up the paint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunboat Posted May 13, 2010 Share #13 Posted May 13, 2010 the best way to remove them is to use some monofilment fishing line to slice between the tank and the eyebrows. then have a fun getting the left over sticky tape off / removed. you can use goobegone or as i did use old fashion lighter fluid. reguards don c.

Skid Posted May 13, 2010 Share #17 Posted May 13, 2010 I'm planning on removing mine, just haven't started the battle yet.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoghead Posted May 13, 2010 Share #18 Posted May 13, 2010 I'm planning on removing mine, just haven't started the battle yet.... It's a job. Most emblems come off pretty easy. These do not. You do have to take your time to avoid scratching the fairing. Worth it because it looks so much better IMO. hh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinsDa1 Posted May 13, 2010 Share #19 Posted May 13, 2010 Mine were removed by my paint guy when I had the fairing repainted (my fault). I have since mounted them on my saddlebags with some diamond pieces that I found at Autozone. They almost look like arrows with tips on both ends.

CMIKE Posted May 13, 2010 Share #20 Posted May 13, 2010 Yes a midnight RSV looks a lot better without the chrome pieces on the faring. I agree...it is a job to remove the left over adhesive. I found 3M makes an Adhesive Remover that did wonders helping removing all that sticky stuff. It is not suppose to hurt your paint and did not bother mine. They sell it at the NAPA store here. White can with Red on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aussie Annie Posted May 18, 2010 Share #23 Posted May 18, 2010 What's a fairing eyebrow???????????? :think: I'm still waiting to find out as well. A girl needs to keep everything lookin' nice ya know. If'n the "eyebrows" on "Dottie's" fairing are untidy I may have to wax 'em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Top Cat Posted April 2, 2011 Share #24 Posted April 2, 2011 I just purchased a 1999RSV with 18000 Mi. I have taken the eyebrows and the adhesive off but there is a shiney spot the size and shape of the Eyebrows it looks and feels like scotch tape it is clear and shiney. You can feel it with your finger. It will not come off. I was wondering if I should use rubbing compound on it or will that take off the clear coat or is there something else that I can use less drastic? Have any of you had this happen to you when removing your`s? Thanks for any help, TOP CAT:fingers-crossed-emo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for any help, TOP CAT:fingers-crossed-emo that's probably the original finish under there and 12 years of weather and riding has "worn down" the exposed finish.
