Im sure you could have one made if you find the right place
I have tried that. Guess what? Custom T-shirt outfits are skeerd of Harley Davidson, Inc. Evidently, The Motor Company has a rep for defending its logos pretty fiercely. Can't blame 'em for that at all.
Vote vote vote!
I don't think the poll is still open, but I did find a shirt that is pretty close to what I've been looking for:
Hey all. I'm starting this thread just to double check that I ain't screwy...that what I'm looking for isn't out of line or pie-in-the-sky...
I'm not the type to wear clothing that makes me look like a walking Harley billboard, but I'd like a simple HD T-shirt. Trouble is, as far as I can tell, there is no such thing as a "Simple Harley Shirt". All I'd like is a T-shirt with a BIG Bar & Shield on the BACK and maybe - maybe - a small B&S on the front chest - on a pocket maybe. That's it. Nothing else on it. I'd buy a couple of 'em. I'd even buy a sweatshirt like that (not a hoodie, just a normal sweatshirt). Simple colors too - black, grey, white... easy, right? Or AM I nuts?
I get why HD sell shirts with the corporate logo on the front - so the dealers can put THEIR logo on the backs of those shirts.
How about doing it the other way around for once?
I've sent emails to HD's "IDEAS" email address. Never heard back.
So, I'm hoping a T-shirt/sweatshirt like this would be something the HD community would be interested in picking up. If so, I'm also hoping someone from HD will see this...
So, who else is interested...??
Find Willie G's email or FB page & contact him he leads that division at Harley Davidson.
And in case u don't know who Willie G is, he's William G "Davidson" the CEO OF HARLEY DAVIDSON & THE LAST LIVING OF THE HARLEY LEGACY.....
But he'll listen to anything that will help Harleys image.....
I met him & his wife Nancy in 1992 & they're Jus the nicest down to earth ppl u could ever meet, just a regular Jo.......

I know of a place in the south to get something like you want. Flea Markets have them. Regular t-shirt with bar and shield on back and small one on the front. I don't have to be billboard either. I wore a sleeveless Fender guitar shirt today on my ride. Wait, that just makes me a Fender billboard even though I own a Fender anymore.
I don't wear much of that stuff anymore since being decked out in Harley logos from head to toe became ridiculously overdone. While everybody does that, I want to ride with rice logos or other bike gear logos, just to be contrary...but usually, no logos at all. You wear what you want. I personally dress for comfort and want to ride while being comfortable...probably too much so. The clothes I ride with normally don't offer much protection, either, which could be my undoing one of these days...
I've worn my Kawasaki t-shirt while riding my Harley, and a Harley t-shirt while riding my Kawasaki many times. First time it happened I didn't even notice. Someone make a dumb comment about it so I've been doing it intentionally from time time. It really is amazing how it bothers some people. lol
