Default 1958 tank badge / emblem / medallion

hello community. All my tins are in the paint shop. I am searching for the “58” round tank badge to put the finishing touch on. I cannot find it. Anyone know of Vintage parts that I might have overlooked?

Bubba. Don’t you think I would have search before asking..... or some **** like that?
In 2010 I would have going them thru JP cycles. Now that are hard to come by. I figured I would hit up my HD community next. Possibly somebody was looking to let him hem go.

Have you tried the Harley P&A catalog yet? In general, the stuff that was available thru J&P is available there.


And I'm with Bubba on this...I don't assume someone's done the logical search thing anymore...

The tanks are 1958. The style was from 57-58 but the color was different from both years. Red in 57. Gold / yellow in 58. I have no doubt there are lazy people who do not research. Most of us would say we do not put ourselves in the category. I was taken back because over the past 5 years of being a member. This is the first time I have gotten my ***** busted. (It’s all good) All the sites I have visited show them and described them but are out of stock. Pinterest will even show them. I have also emailed vintage parts, Justpanhead, VTwin, etc to notify me if they become available. I would rather not wait on someone to get back to me so I was hoping a member might have a set they no longer need.

Well if this is the first ball busting you've gotten in 5 years you're doing damn good. Most of us get it daily or at least weekly. In any event, I wasnt trying to make anybody mad. I often get into trouble in real life with people that don't know me well because that's how I talk to most everyone I know. It really is all in good fun.
