Default Should I take all the decals off the bike?

On my 05 magma red zx6r. The "ninja" on the fairing,"kawasaki" on the tank, and "zx6r" on the tail. Basically make it naked. The decals are white. I dont know if it would look good or not though. What do you think??

I've been wrestling with the idea too... I just don't like stickers. I think that if they were painted, I could live with 'em, but I don't want to pay for the paint, or to get it re-cleared. I really want to get another set of plastics to experiment with. I have an idea that involves cutting the logos into the plastic. Then swaging, and pinning dark lexan in then back lighting them with leds. Ya I know it's very involved, but the logos would be almost invisible unless lit. I've done thing like this with models, but a model isn't a costly set of plastics. I think it would look bad a$$ green, or yellow glowing 636, and ZX6R tags.

I took all the stickers off my 03 636 (cept the kawasaki on the tank they're cleared on so it would require a repaint of the tank which I might do eventually) But anyways once I took off the ninja, zx6r and 636 stickers it looked a hundred times better and much much cleaner looking. I've seen 03-04's without the kawasaki on the tank and it looks awsome. TAKE EM ALL OFF!!!!!!!!!!!! and just think of the horsepower gains... way less drag and weight... [8D]

I painted my stock decals once on the zx7. To match the leathers and the wheels that were on it.
