OK yesterday I raced in the radar runs on a lake here in MN. I got 2nd out of about 25 in my class and the guy in 1st beat me by 1/10th of a mph.... Well my second run of the day I decided to take off the rear plastic and seat to get the airbox more air(i have removed the lid) and i would get better aerodinamics. At the end of my run I knowtised a chunk of my snowpants melted to my 400ex megamax2 slip on, is there anything i can do to get that off without taking away the heat paint?
thanks- darren

OUCH, just be glad that it was your snow pants and not skin! Not sure exactly how to get it off... Let it warm up and slide it off?

... only on my head pipe and once the pipe completely cooled, I picked the stuff right off with my finger nail. Easy 'nuff.
Good luck.
