The modern emblems are held on with two sided tape. It is really strong.

Hair dryer and some dental floss or fishing line will do it.

I used a credit card to pry the emblems off my old Road King.

I didn't even need a hair dryer. Just dental floss'll do it. Wear gloves.

I've used a credit card to put a lot of stuff on my bike but never used one to take something off of it!

Are there any marks left on the tank after the emblem is removed?
