Default HD Tank Medallions

Hey All - How goes it.

I have a 2010 Fat Boy and was kind of bummed that the tank medallion is actually a decal. I really like the raised medallions that stick on, and low and behold, the 2011 models have them.

So the question is.... where can I get them, or ones like them?

Cheers
John

You could keep an eye on ebay. Decals, Emblems under motorcycle parts and accessories. Many will repaint and go with a look without them.

Good luck. I found this one meant for the Ford Harley truck.
I used it to cover the bolt holes left from relocating my plate mount.
It's a close match to my tank badges and held on with 3M tape.

Make sure it is big enough to cover the decal on the tank. I have always wanted to cover mine with one of the emblems, but I would have to repaint or else it would still be visible under the emblem. One day....

That rear looks good!!

I have tried to see if it would cover - but not sure. I don't want to go down the respray route - not yet anyway - not enough cash for that.

You could try using tracing paper over your decal and go down to the dealer and check laying the tracing over the 2011's emblem for a fit.

I just asked someone on the forum that had the emblem I wanted to measure it. It was not big enough.
