Man, I do like that. I just might have to take whats left of my camo off. The left side of mine has started coming off where my knee was rubbing it. How did you manage to get it all off? I'd hate to start taking it off and get to a point where it wouldn't. Any tricks to doing it?

Most of it came off with the assistance of a newly bought tip for my pressure washer. Then I also used this.....
 If I had known about the aircraft paint remover first it would have saved a ton of time as that stuff just melts the camo away for the most part. Where the camo is dark was the hardest spots to remove and where the factory decals were was the single hardest place to remove. I never 100% truly removed all from under the original decals.......this tells me that some of the camo failure is UV related. I also spent a few hours wet sanding in some spots with 2000 and 2500 paper. There is still some camo left in seams and cracks that can't really be seen as I did not remove any plastic while doing this. the only thing I removed were the racks so I could get under them good. Once mine started peelling and I realized Honda was not going to help I actually took a day off work because I became so OCD on the matter that it was killing me. Pretty much got all this done in one evening and the next day. The reason it is so clean in these pics is I was bored after riding the last time and found several partial bottles of WD and armor all in the garage so I soaked down the underside with WD and soaked down the entire tires with armor all, then wiped down the whole thing with lemon pledge......trust me it was just a one time thing. it will never look that clean again.
