Will there be any damage if I peel that sticker off? (New bike)

Yes, everyone will think your bike was made in China. Ha!

Use a hairdryer to heat up the sticker a bit before attempting to peel it off. It will come off much easier and cleaner.

Has anyone done it?

I'm surprised it's still there...my dealer removed it... maybe he thought I wouldn't buy it if I thought it was from Taiwan or china.. lol. No harm done.

Yes. The stickers come off without causing damage. You may do well with a hair dryer to soften up the glue.

I have taken the external stickers off all of my scooters. If I want stickers on my scooter, I'll choose the ones I like. "Scooter Trash" is a good one, for example. A hair dryer helps take off stickers quite cleanly, as others have noted. A little "Goo Gone" will get rid of any sticky residue (note - not "Goof Off"!).

WD-40 will also remove adhesive residue.

Goo Gone.

That's what I use for dealership stickers on my cars. I refuse to give them free advertising.

+1, Goo Gone works well. Just be patient and let it soak.

Pulled it off as well as the charger warning sticker. No chemicals needed just came right off very clean. I attribute it to being so new. I'm debating on whether or not to peel off the "wear helmet yada yada yada " sticker.

Thought about removing the stickers as well. Good advice here!

Speaking of removing stickers, is there an issue if I remove the DOT sticker from my helmet? Does that have to stay there for any reason? Just curious.
