Default tank emblem options on 6 gallon tanks

Pulled the emblems of mine hoping the pin stripping matched the ends toward the back of the tank...well, they just end squared off under the emblem so now I'm looking for pics of what others have done. Not really sure what I'm going for yet so, what ya got?

Everyone and their brother gets the 61-62 emblem - you might want to think outside the box a little. Hard question to answer w/o knowing what you are trying to accomplish by changing emblems. If you want to go retro, look here:

All options are open now, more curious just see what everyone has done so far. Gun sight one...maybe to retro.
Like the street glide ones...

i really like the ones off of the cvo breakout. they are super sharp. might take a little tweaking to fit on a 6 gal tank since they come off a softail though. and even though they are from the cvo, they are not restricted, so don't get suckered into some bidding war on ebay and way overpay.

Took the emblems off my 14 and gonna stay naked. I like the looks of it but it's easier to keep it clean and to wax it which was the real goal.

Best looking emblems I've seen are the CVO screaming eagle ones.

Having installed an '09 tank on my '90 Glide, I used the authentic '90 decals, plus hand lining. Come on, you have the entire pantheon of Harley designs to choose from! I fear we could be here for a long time.....

I'm thinking I want to remove the badges and have it replaced with some hand-lettering/pinstriping. It would be much easier to clean and polish without snagging on the badges.
