Scorpion Stickers

[Doorag]

Has anyone had any trouble with the Scorpion stickers on the cans peeling off? Mine are peeling off from both the top and bottom on both sides. I think I'll just take them off. There's a Scorpion engraving on the end in case I need to prove what they are at some point.

Just take them off it would look much nicer without the stickers. Just like the bike I took all the stickers off of mine except the fz6 sticker on the fearing.

Yea, I just noticed after the last time I washed the bike the end of last week, mine are diong the same thing. I like how they're red and black like my bike, but sometime they're going to fall off or I'll peel them off and then have to clean the glue off the cans. I think it might look pretty nice once cleaned up. But they should have done something a little different IMO for their logo. Oh well...

Oh and I wonder if high temp rtv silicone would reattach them well?....

I reported this problem back in the spring. My Scorpion stickers were lifting off at the top and bottom when I took the cans out of the box. The flat plastic stickers and their adhesive simply can't sustain the bend around the "edges" of the oval cannisters. I sent an email to both the manufacturer in the UK and to the Scorpion distributor in the US pointing out this rather cheesy defect, and advised them that they should be using a thinner decal, rather than the thick plastic 'disc' that wants to straighten out all the time. No response from either. I guess they don't care.
Anyway, I thought it would be wise to remove the stickers before the CF underneath the sticker doesn't match the CF of the rest of the cannister. In my opinion, the mufflers look much better without the gaudy stickers. What's the point of carbon fiber if you can't see it? As you point out, there is a classy Scorpion engraving on the end caps of each cannister if they need to be id'd for pedigree.

I just pulled mine off anyway. I think the sound is pedigree enough.

I just pulled mine too. Seemed like the thing to do.

Yeah, they didn't fit in with my no sticker theme

Thanks everyone. At least I'm not alone. They will be removed tomorrow.
