What's everyone doing to replace tank emblems? I have a 13 fatboy lo and I'm not a big fan of the tank emblems. I'm thinking of replacing them with dyna/ street glide ones until I get it air brushed. What's everyone think?
Fatboy badges are the ones to have. Why would you replace them with a lower model bikes badge? If you don't like them, just remove them and sell/give them to someone that appreciates them. But don't put a Dyna badge on a Fatboy LO.

Making them "the ones to have" are subject to preference. I don't care for them. As far as lower model badges, just because they are on lower models wont downgrade my bike. I personally like the simplicity of them.
It's your bike, brother. I say do what you want and make the bike what you like, you are the one with the creative mind so make it your own. I do not think a Dyna is a lower model, either. I had one for years and just wanted the Fat Boy for the larger size. Post pics when you do the mod, would love to see them.
I'm not a fan of the fatty badges either and I don't worry about what other close minded folks think! I went with street glide badges and painted them to match my colors.
I also want to get some painted on down the road but wanted to have something till then. Badges were like $60 for now compaired to a paint job the is gonna be $600+.
Yeah I'm good for now....

Seriously, how hard would it be to get them off of your tank? You may be looking at a new paint job sooner then expected. Unless that was your intent all along
