Default New (old) graphic for 07 superglide

I am strongly considering stripping the clear coat off of my tank this winter and removing the "Harley Davidson" decal on my 07' superglide. I was origonally going to do some silver leaf but when I was brousing through my HD catolog I found this emblem:


It's for a 61/62 FL model but HD makes mounting kits with 3m self adhesive to fit current fat bob tanks.
I think a simple chrome 3D emblem on the black tank would accent the bike nicely as I have added the front fender trim and it has little spashes of chrome on it. I did a photochop of the bike with the emblem. What do ya think?

That is my favorite harley logo. 61, 62 panhead. Followed second by the fatboy. If iwas ever going to redo my tank, i'd use this logo. Right on.

That logo caught my eye as soon as I saw it. Like I said, I was going to do some aluminumleaf but the results are up in the air if I would truely like it. Also, I always thought the raised chrome emblems on tanks were classy looking and it would be very cheap to do. I MIGHT wind up having to have my buddy Kenny re-clear it and re-paint it dependent upon how easily the stock emblem comes off.

When I photo chopped it, it just "looked right" .

Winter Project!

The stock Superglide emblem is buryed under all that clear coat though. I would at least have to re-clear it I would think.

Now that you mentioned it, Harley should have used that type of emblem since they were thinking of an old school type bike.

I think the emblem on the Superglide Custom is a re-hash from an older model.

I have a set of these emblems with the backing plates up on ebay if your interested. Bought them to use myself but decided on a custom paint with no emblem. I do like the way they look though.
