BlackJack Mod (literally)

Post by AlisonK »

Genuine has a series called the internationals. There is a red one for Spain, blue one for France and a Green one for Italy. I decided to do one for England, or less specifically, Great Britain. I have nicknamed it the UnionJack.

Side view, with a black and white Union Jack sticker. There is one in the same place on the other side too.

Rear view showing the Mod target sticker on the back.  There is another smaller sticker above it from an English motorcycle magazine.  It says, "caution, tuned 4-stroke" I didn't intend to leave it on, but there it is!

And an offset front view. I removed all the Buddy stickers. I held onto them in case I want to put them back on.

Well done. I disliked those puffy Blackjack emblems and removed them, but you took it to the next level. Very nice!

I'd like to see a union jack color schemed buddy, every scooter that has one usually looks amazing.

Hello,

I took off the Black Jack and Buddy logos from the front of my just-purchased Black Jack (First Scooter!), and at various angles I can still clearly see where the stickers were. Any recommendations on how to clean it up? Will Soft Scrub work? I want to be sure it will work before I take the time to remove the stickers from the sides.

Thanks!

Try rubbing alcohol, dries up the adhesive so you can just rub off.
