Default tank emblem

One of my tank emblems is coming loose at the rear edge on my 06 street bob. I can push it back, but a few minutes later it's sticking out again.Is this a common problem and should dealer fix as it is still under warranty? I thought about using some glue, but I don't want to risk making matters worse.

Don't use glue. At most, cut some double sided 3m tape to fit. But if it's under warranty still, what the hell, make them fix it if you can get an appt and get it back quick without having to leave it for several days. As long as it's not an inconvenience to you, I'd make them fix it. Otherwise, I'd do it myself.

If you want to keep them on make them fix it.
If you're thinking about 'losing' them well your 1/2 way done with one of them already

wow... take in the bike fora loose tank emblem... wow.... go to the tape section of your hadware store and get some 3m heavy duty tape (has a red wrapper) cut a small piece and it will stick it on there for as long as you want to keep it.... personally i think it is your bike trying to shed the gay looking badges

My 08 is doing the same thing on the right side of the tank. I noticed the same thing on a few others.

I'm picking up my Street Bob tomorrow. I was sitting on it in the showroom yesterday. The right emblem was already peeling off.
