Ok so it's a little late to be asking this

But anyone have any issues with removing the frame stickers.  Is there any law against it. 
If need be can my dealer order me a replacement set?

The stickers came off whole and are stored on the bike, there is a permanent VIN stamp on the bike
correct?

Thanks

VIN is stamped in the steering tube on the right hand side of the frame 

stickers be gone!

The way I see it, the mattress police never got me so maybe the sticker police wont either.

The sticker is just a more readable / accessible facsimile of the VIN, but it is just a sticker and not the VIN. Same goes for the warning stickers and such which warn you that about possible injury or <shudder> death from operating a motorcycle in any other way than what is prescribed in the owners manual.

One thing, that shell sticker on the case side, if you don't remove it soon enough it can leave sort of a weird texture to the paint. I just wish the VIN sticker was on the frame underneath the seat.

Just make sure there is another emissions sticker under the seat.  In CA, that sticker can matter when a bike is sold (or if it is sold to someone from CA).

Lucky bastard! I had to use a gallon of goof-off and give myself a manicure after I was done picking those wavy strips off one at a time.

Use a hair dryer next time to warm up the sticker.  It makes the adhesive gooey and easy to remove.

I'll remember that next time my bike is in the ladies' bathroom.

When you transfer registrations between states you could have trouble.  For VIN verification in CT they did not want to take the stamped VIN.  We spent 20 minutes while the inspector looked all over the bike and telling me that there is a sticker, he has to find the sticker.     I spent twenty minutes saying I had no idea what he was talking about  and pointing at the  stamped VIN.  They finally took it.  When I moved to VA, no one cared or even checked.

I guess it's even more trusting in Georgia. I bought both my ducs from out of state and it was just a matter of supplying paperwork (title for one and purchase papers for the other) no one has looked at either bike even for insurance.

In CA, they're pretty anal about the VIN sticker being there.  Since my Cafe-Racer was bought in another state and moved with me to CA I had no stickers (I had already powdercoated the frame).  The fine folks (read: dicks) at the DMV office wouldn't take the stamped VIN in the head so they referred me to the CHP for a vehicle inspection.  The officer who did it had NO issue with the sticker being gone, just looked the bike over for obvious faults (no signals, no headlight...shit like that) and he wrote up an inspection certificate.  The DMV took that as evidence that all was well and it's been CA registered since.

I have heard of people using the hair-dryer trick and putting the sticker back on the frame in a better spot (under the side panel, or seat), just be sure the new area is clean before you try to transfer the sticker.

The stickers are easily replicated. A friend who took his bike to New Zealand did exactly that.
