Default RE: Decal or Badge ?

I like my emblem, but Ialso like the 86 heritage decal.
Have you thought about just getting a tank repainted using a decal/emblem to match your fenders?
When I was going to use that decal, I had a local guy going to make me decals from the (86 decal) using color to match my paint. He was going to use green instead of the red in the decal.
Also, I think when it comes to choosing emblemor decal, it helps to know the two tone design. If you go with the commontwo tone paint on the tank like the orangeset, I think the decal with two pinstripes looks betterin most cases.

I went with the 1940's emblem to go with the scheme of things on my Springer Classic.
