Default Tank emblems - Installed

Swapped out the tank emblems for more classic looking pieces, install was easy, thanks to everyones tips in another thread I created a while back. I measured, measured, then measured some more. Install went something like 45-60 minutes measuring, moving tape around, measuring again LOL. 10 minutes actual install

Anyway, here are the pics...
Old emblem removed, tank clean and ready to go...




And with the new emblems installed...














For you sharp eyed guys out there, they may look a little off or weird in the pictures, but that is because the bike is parked at an angle and the angle of the camera when taking pics. Trust me, I measured a lot with both a regular ruler and a flexible tape measure many, many times and they are spot on in person.

Thanks again for the tips and instruction. Hope y'all like the pics

Lookin' good. Decals just don't do anything for my opinion.

Hey, would you mind posting the link to the thread where you got all of the advice? I want to do something similar and could use the guidance, too.

Thanks!

I ran those emblems on one of my bikes, it was silver as well. Good choice.
