Default Tank Emblem/Decal Question

Hey guys I have seen on the tanks of some denim black 883 Irons a Harley Davidson logo I like. It's not the outlined one but the bolder curved one. If I remember correctly it has made in the USA under it. This may be a dumb question, but I'm going to ask anyway since I haven't seen one in person. Is this painted on the black denim or is it a decal? I think it looks awesome on the sportsters.
