There is a product called "sticker shock" It is an aerosol spray that dissolves the sticky glue or whatever is on the back of stickers and decals. It doesn't hurt your paint and you can get it at just about any auto parts store.

If they are decals on top of the paint/clear coat, then heat them with a blow dryer or heat gun and peel them off. Some people use dental floss and slowly remove the decal while heating. Any residue remaining can be removed with Goo Gone or Goof Off. Then apply a polish to the area and wax.

If the decals are under the clear coat then you're screwed. You'll have to sand it down, remove the decal and repaint.

You could have trouble if the clear coat was applied over the decals ,( rarely the case ). Normally Zippo lighter fluid works great and will not harm the paint. Just apply liberally , let it set just a few seconds ( don't let it dry or it don't work ) , the adhesive breaks down and you can peel the decal . A little more fluid and any residue left will wipe right off .

I've seen several people make references to a "heat gun", whatever you do, Do not use a "Heat Gun" unless you want to repaint your bike. Use a hair dryer on the highest setting.

Most heat guns will have temp ranges from 180-500° F! If you make a mistake it will blister your paint. Hair dryers will take a little longer but less chance of screwing up your paint.
