Tank badge
Am I nuts for wanting to take the tank badge off for a speaker look. When I took the reflectors and stickers off, I sat staring at the tank trying to imagine it off. If I do, is it the same type of adhesive strip as the other stuff?

I go back and forth on the Street Bob badge. I personally prefer a sticker under the clear, which I have had on every Harley I've owned with the exception of my 2004 Sportster.
In any case, I know people have removed them but I'm not sure if it's the same adhesive. A heat gun and goo gone or similar should do the trick. Have you checked out YouTube?

Same stuff. Dribble some WD 40 along the top of the badge, let it soak in, and cut through the adhesive with dental floss. Won't scratch your finish.
