Default help me pick a new tank decal

metal fab and mechanics I got down, but when it come to what looks right, I must have been born without the artistic bone, so I need some help. Thanks to letting my friend try to pop a ding out of my gas tank (never trust a guy who rides a honda ) my tank decal got screwed up, and I'm not having a whole lot of luck finding a replacement, so I was going to get a new set. I liked some of the ones i saw in the tank decal/emblem thread a few days ago on here, but don't know how they would look against a purple tank. So here's a few pics of the bike (best I've got while i'm "at work") let me know what ya think?

your not thinking of installing an actaul sticker are you? I would either paint one on (you can design anything here) or find an actual metal badge to install.

I'm not a big fan of stickers.....

Find a sign painter that can spell Harley Davidson.

decals on there now are stickers, only think I liked about them was they were easy to clean. i'd much prefer a 3d metal badge, just not sure how it would look with a decal's pin-stripped tank like mine

How about a simple Bar'n'Shield?

1+ on the 3d. There's a thread on here with lots of emblem pics.
