If anybody "in the know" can tell me a real way to get the tank emblems for an '09 CVO Road Glide, it would be HUGELY appreciated.
Most of what I hear is, you have to provide a CVO VIN and that if one were to need that same part within 24 months, you wouldn't be able to get them. Of course, it depends on who I talk to as to which version of that I get. After a long time choosing the perfect OE style emblem for my '09 bike project, I decided the simple block lettering that's on a SERG would compliment my bike the best. Simply put, they would absolutely "make" the bike. Then, I here this crap about emblems. HUGE disappointment of course. For the look I want, the only other choice would be the chrome version of the tank emblem that comes on the Rocker C bikes. Though fine in it's own right, that SERG emblem is the better choice for too many reasons.
If anybody can "hook me up", please, please tell me! PM me if necessary. Absolute discretion would be observed. Thanks for any help.

From what I understand not only do you need the VIN number but you need to trade in the old part or provide a police report detailing how the part was removed (stolen) from your bike . . . I tried to get a restricted part once so this is based on first hand experience (I bought the fender and tank set from a 2005 Fatboy anniversary set and figured I'd order the rest of the anniversary parts - no dice)

I have an 03 Centenary model and have heard that the emblems etc are not freely available. But hearing is one thing, getting it first hand is another. You won't get those emblems anywhere else, so phone around a few dealers. You may find the hearsay is just that!
If you can't get them, most Harley emblems going way back over the years are still available, so search further back in time to see if there are any others that fit the bill. Not so long ago I got tank decals for my 1990 with no problems, just had to order them. The variety of emblems available over the last twenty years is going to give you something!

I have tried every possible way (excep theft) to get my hands on the 09 CVO Road Glide tank emblems. I was told by everyone (including "Dawg") that not only can you not buy with a serial number but you have to return the damaged part to HD to get a replacement. I went at this with an attitude that enough money (within reason) would buy anything, not the case with some CVO stuff. I did see a Paul Yaffee bike (cover last month 'Bagger"), has them on the tank so I guess there is a way for some people.

Just what my parts manager said.

I am NOT familiar with this emblem, so here is a question for you....
is this a 3d emblem that sticks out a little from the tank or is it a 2d (flat sticker) type deal? could a good airbrush artist reproduce it with paint r a good sign maker remake it in vinyl ? just a thought.......
Hard to get H-D tank emblems
