Max,
I think its a wrap from an autoparts store
its a very cool bike, the covers being plastic it either wrap or paint

whoops you asked how you take them off?
there just covers should un-bolt once the tank is taken off to access

The plastichrome valve covers are 2-piece, and i think the holes are slotted. Loosen the bolts a bit and slide each half out the side.
