Default Just A Little Bit Of Red

I love mine. They have just that little bit of red you mentioned. Because of the length, they have to be worked a bit to fit the contours of the tank.

P.S., I have seen some really nice badges here in this thread, more then I actually thought were out there. I really like yours El James but that one also matches up with your paint lines though and my paint is different from your's and not sure my bike would show them as well as yours.
I don't see anything wrong with removing emblems and having a bare tank. I will be taking mine off this weekend. I ran my dyna without the badges and I personally think the bike looked sick!

So there.. My 2 cents. I'm all for no badges. I will post a pic of my ride after I dump them this weekend :-D

Here's my street bob w/o badges:

I like those emblems. Thought about adding them on my black denim Slim.

I am typically not a fan of springers, but your scoot is amazing. Proper old school styling.

Agreed, not a springer fan, at least a big springer fan but that one could be mine and lookin real pretty in my garage. Sometimes, no matter what we have all done to our bikes, black tins are a timeless, classic Harley and hard to beat.

Awesome bikes, and awesome emblems. I'm freggin jealous of some of you guys scoots. Skeez, that is a great bike. And a nice touch to do the small wrap to prevent boot marks. Damned practical and looks cool.
