I say replace 'em.
There has to be something better, not to mention it's a easy mod that'll make it more 'your bike'.

I pulled them after about a week. I kept mine, but I have seen them up for sale on eBay for a decent price. I replaced the 3M tape and mounted one to the tailgate of my car. (Pewter HD script off of

I will give you my opinion here.

I think the FXDC badges are some of the sleekest and best HD badges.
I would not replace mine to be honest, and I haven't. Sure other badges are cool too, but I love mine just the way they are.

Cheers,

Tom

If you don't like them, remove them. I would then wait until you find something that strikes your fancy...

I don't like 'em unless they're decals, and most of them I don't like. Left mine off. No free advertising for the MoCo from me.

I'd personally leave the emblem alone. It ties in nice with the whole bike. It's your bike though so do what you please. Just my oppinion. If you want to change it maybe even put the chrome street glide harley davidson emblem on it. It looks just like the street bob tank emblem except its chrome not brushed.

your badges were originally used i believe on the '72 super glide, so there is some nostalgia there. i considered changing mine to a plain silver bar and shield, nice clean look, but the more i look at mine the more i like them so they are staying. imho badgeless looks generic, like you're hiding something.

I think you answered your own question (dislike a lot), but if your sig pic is representive of you bike today I would say leave it alone, but, if it really turns your stomach you know what you've got'a do. I personally like decals vs raised emblems.
