I peeled off the main speed decal, but left the small one on the panel below. I like the stripe there.

Ok Spud your pictures are getting ridiculous. I live in Florida only 2 blocks from the intercoastal and 3 blocks from the ocean. I thought it didn't get any better than this. What the heck town and body of water is that? I don't think I have ever seen anything more amazing looking.

You have good taste for natural beauty. My RX3 is posed in front of Bear Lake, which straddles the states of Idaho and Utah. The lake is home to several unique species of fish, and is the famous rendezvous site where Jim Bridger, Jedediah Smith, and other famous mountain men would rendezvous to trade.

I'll post a ride report, and more photographs, later this evening.

That first shot looks as if it was taken on the west side of Lake Okanagan, across the water from Kelowna, BC. Seriously, it looks very much like that.

Under the CSC roundel

I have removed the Speed sticker and was considering removing the CSC from the side of RX3.

Is the Zongshen emblem under the CSC sticker on the side of the bike. Spud's bike appears to have the Zongshen emblem on his bike. This would be preferable to the CSC decal.

Thanks

I ordered the Zongshen Roundels from Taoabo.

Glad I searched before posing this question.
I hate graphics it will be the first thing done to lighten the bike up a bit.
I cannot believe people pay extra for helmets with all the graphics on them.

Being that it is fall in Maine with no doubt will need heat to remove most all of the graphics.

A hair dryer will work well to remove the stickers.

Every time my wife buys a new hair dryer or hair straightener the old ones end up in my workshop. Hair straighteners seal mylar bags for hiking and camping meals.

That's the first time I've ever seen a house in any of Spuds pics! I had no idea other people lived there! ;-)

Twice a year I leave my cave for supplies.

I also peeled the stickers off...no hair dryer was needed. They come off very easily and cleanly.

In the summer I also peeled the stickers off without a hair dryer. In November, I would use a hair dryer.
