Default Road Glide Tank Decal Ideas
I am looking to create a unique tank decal for my Road Glide. I need a little help coming to a final decision. I plan taking a 59-60 era harley tank emblem and replacing the "Harley-Davidson" with either "Semper glide" or "Road Glide."
Submit your vote on the poll and help me decide. Thanks

If you earned it, Semper Glide would be the way...anyone with $ can "road glide"


I'm from an RCAF Dad, service leaves a pride that should be expressed

Gotta say go with the "Semper" - a lot of earned personal pride! What you showed looks good. Thanks for your service.

Like the others have said... I like the Semper Glide, but I'm assuming you'll be clear coating over them? You might just want to give resale a thought? Unless you keep the bike forever, might be hard to sell like that? Show some pics when you decide and get it done.
