Bought the new ones off Ebay. Used dental floss to remove the old ones..biggest problem removing the sticky tape left on the tank. Brake cleaner did the trick and did not hurt the paint.

So the 04 Sporty has actaul emblems on the tank stock? No clear-coated over stickers? I need some sort of emblems for my wifes 06 since her stickers went away with her custom paint job.
