I don't think its a poser at all. The Bar and Shield has been around forever and its on all kinds of stuff, so I give it a pass.

Looks like some Fat Bobs basically have the same symbol. Decal under the clear coat vs emblem being the difference.

It does not say CVO - it’s a generic HD bar & shield. Far from posing. Can probably find aftermarket ones very similar on eBay. I guess CVO owners need to justify the money spent by getting mad over stupid **** like this.

It’s not stupid just a matter of pride owning a CVO , and most of these emblems require the CVO serial numbers just to be able to buy replacements

Of the seven deadly sins, theologians and philosophers reserve a special place for pride, the deadliest of all, the root of all evil, and the beginning of sin.

it was also one of the Commandments

I don't think anybody is talking about imitating you. Again, no CVO letters are being discussed, just a bar and shield. You are over the top with this.

lol these comments. I have a CVO seat on my RGS.....OMG string me up! Im a poser!

I bought the seat cause I sat on one and it felt good, I like the styling and the stitching matched my laguna orange bike and matches my scorched orange bike now even better. No one has ever commented to me ...oh that's a CVO seat, you shouldn't have that on your bike. Even guys I ride with that own CVOs.

Let it go! Its a harley bar and shield badge.
