If there are matching numbers stamped into the frame that match the tag, then no, no easy way.

The Ace 90 does not have the frame stamped. They only have the frame tag above the left rear shock mount.

And yes, there is an easy way to remove the tag without damaging. The holes for the tiny studs are drilled all the way through. Use an ice pick or a dental pick to push them out from the back side. It will take a moment to find the holes but they are there. I use a 90 degree angled pick. All you have to do is get them started and then you can pull them out with needle-nose pliers

P.S. The tiny studs that attach the tag on the steering head for the later Models are the same. You can push them out from the inside without damaging the tag since they are also drilled all the way through.
