My dealer said they did not notice the misplaced emblem.
BTW,I did know the difference of the emblem on the tank when I got my fatbob from the dealer ... I thought it was `normal` but could not figure out why the Harley did such design ( sigh ).
As other said , that may make my fatbob a really unique one

I hope they replace the emblem without any more trouble soon.

The emblem in your second pic is exactly what came on my Superglide Custom. (Which I replaced with Rocker-C emblems 2 days after buying the bike.)

I recently noticed that my front fender color doesn't exactly match the rest of my bike. The FXDC I bought is red hot sunglo but the fender is different, more like red sprayed over a black base instead of gold which I believe is how the red hot sunglo is painted. Not a huge deal but now it is bugging me for some reason.

Yes, the emblem in the second pic is from the FXDC. When I got my FXDC, I took them off as I dislike that style of emblem and put on the red color-matched emblems that come on the Electra Glide.

May look odd but for the FatBob, that emblem looks great.

Most folks are using some heat source (hair dryer, lamp) with care to remove, and some goo gone for cleanup. Does the trick. Just be patient.....

I wonder they paste the emblems from each side of the tank at the same time without checking the symmetric difference.
