Default Tank Emblem
Ok Now my bike has paint on it I had been considering a Tank Emblem. Have done some searches. Just haven't found ones that I really like.
Seems my feminine side is coming out Dang it.
If any of ya have seen or know of a badge or emblem that reflects a 97 flht's style or looks I'ds appreciate a pic or link.

Some of the stuff on flea bay might be alright, alot of ebay stuff looks a bit cheap and I would guess it would be.

Thanks WP

I have a set of tank badges off a '99 road king (classic or custom). They are nice chrome badges that say Harley-Davidson. Nothing too fancy

I don't know if you are big on cleaning your bike but they call those things "rag catchers" for a reason.

Leave it white and be happy IMO.

Exactly why I went under five coats of clear on my bike with my stock style emblems. Could have bought the new FXDWG stick on but didn't, that was half the reason.

I take it you're paint and clear is completed and you're looking for a sticky back ???

I have a 1947 Harley badge on my 90 softail. Only a few people have ever asked what year did that badge come from.
