Personally, I wouldn't debadge a bike. My Suzuki C50T was debadged by the previous owner and I got tired of people telling me "nice Honda" or "nice Harley".

If that's what works for you, don't let me stop you.

I dosen't matter if you have badges or not.
I had Yamaha badges on my 650 Silverado and still had people say"is that a Harley" ::)

Thing about is CJ is not considered in the South

You can saw the badges off with fishing line and clean up the tape residue with GooBgone, a little heat from a hair dryer helps soften the tape also.

I have thought about doing the same thing Tom. Still debating.

Seems there are illiterate people all over the US. Other countries also I would imagine.
