How do you best take the warning labels off the fuel tank without scratching?

Hair dryer to warm up and gently peel it off with your fingers.

Congrats on the ride and welcome to the family!

Hot soapy sponge, lay it on top of the labels for about 5 minutes then most of it will peel off with your thumbnail. The rest will come off with the soapy sponge. Great looking bike!

Nice! congrats.

I used the hair dryer method and a little goo gone to clean up any residue sticker glue. (not much).

+1 hair drier and little goo gone on either a cotton ball or soft terrycloth. Gently peel with fingers and warming up and small gentle circles with the goo gone to get off the extra residue then clean with soap and water, dry and wax.
Sorry meant hair DRYER.
Sorry meant hair DRYER.

I admit that I cheated. It may be the case that stickers are easiest to remove when the bike is new. No hair dryer or anything. I just fingernailed the edges and took them right off. Used some WD-40 to take off the little bit of residue stuck to the tank. Then cleaned off the WD-40.

Good one, Walrus. Welcome aboard.

Thanks guys. This is a great community. Put the battery on the CTEK tender last night to bring it to full charge. Rainy today. Already waxed the metal bits with cmagic. Not much else to do but wait.

Oil sight glass is a bit challenging to read.
