Wow, thanks for all the compliments folks, always nice to hear that the stuff you like others do too.
I didn't get the emblems from JP, and don't know if JP sells the genuine HD ones, but that's what I got thru my local MoCo dealer. The quality is top notch, real metal, nice quality chrome and mounting system, fits great and <$75 for the emblem and mounting kit. To me, it totally transforms the bike. Zero regrets.
As for selling the take-offs, I'm going to hold on to them as I do with all the take-offs. I've owned enough classics over the years to have learned to hold on to every original part I can after having to scrounge for original parts on older bikes. But thanks for asking.
BTW, had one of the nicest rides of the year this afternoon. Yes New England winters suck, but the trade-off is a gorgeous Fall. I'm trying to cram every ounce of sunshine I can behind the saddle before the snow flies. Tomorrow is supposed to be another nice day and I'm ready to call in sick!

In actuality, I read another post on this here forum where someone did this swap, so technically, I ain't the only one emblem pimpin' - it's more like a virus!
