TANK LEAF REMOVAL | Video: http://www.luimoto.com/tankleaf-removal

Do not use any sort of heat method as it will weaken the Tank Leaf internal structure. With a cold bike,

start from an edge and pull the product off with firm steady force using only your finger tips.

To remove the adhesive tape left on the gas tank, do not pull it up towards you as it will break and take a long time to remove.

With your fingers, simply pry up any corner, and pull it either up, down, left, or right alongside the motorcycle and repeat.
