Need your help with emblems
Hi Guys
Need you help on this one
I'm having my 1985 Evo Classic repainted. Colors are
coming out GREAT.
My problem is I want a newer looking EMBLEMS on both
my 5 gallon gas tank and one on the back of my tour pak.
All (3)three matching.
Question(s)
1.What emblems would fit my 5 gal. tank ?
2.Or would the newer emblems on the 6 gal. tanks fit
onto my 5 gal. tank ?
Take a look see the 1985 emblem that came with my bike
back in '85
Can you post pictures of emblems you think will FIT
BOTH MY TANK & TOUR PAK PLEASE.
I can than go down to my Harley dealership and order 'em.

I can't help with emblems, on my tank they are painted on. Heres what they look like for ideas. I just got a JP cycle catalog. They have three or four page of emblems. Decals, stick on and screw on. Check their web site. Order a cat. its free. Heres the back of my tour pak

An alternative are genuine Harley tank transfers (that's what we call them here in the UK!) like BB4xl and I have, which will shape to your tank. I suspect you will have problems with metal emblems. I have both later 5 gallon and recent 6 gallon tanks and they look much more rounded than yours where the emblems fit. As for decals (I remembered what they are called!!!! 
), these change almost every year, come in different colours and a wide variety of styles. You will be spoiled for choice and should be able to find something you like. Your local Harley dealer may be able to show you some. I bought matching ones for my bike and stuck them on my tourpak and batwing (my bike didn't have them when new).

You could also find a picture of the emblems you like and have them painted on. We have a couple of local painters that paint emblems on and when they are done they look like the real thing. They shade tem, etc so that they have depth and it is really a custom look.

Decals . . . Hummmm
Hey BB4xI
DECALS . . . SOUNDS LIKE A VERY GOOD IDEA.
I'll take a look @ what JP Cycles got.
Thanks 4 the heads-up.
