Well, I installed my badges this morning (and afternoon). What a pain but worth it. One tip, for that final fine line of adhesive after using goo gone, rubbing compound works pretty good. They look great.
You can use a rubber wheel on a drill to remove the double sided tape off the paint. 3M sells them, tape comes off quickly and you can buff the tank to remove any oxidation around the Harley Davidson emblem. Tank badge looks awesome !
I found the best way to remove OEM badges is to use the heat gun & dental floss or plastic fishing line. This way removes 80% - 90% of the 3M tape as you’re removing the badge
So the Harley badges that we SHOULDNT be able to get for the previous CVOs along with the bags and some other stuff, which most of em can get from Advanblack, make you or ANY of you feel smart about your CVO purchase(scam) from Harley or now that I have a regular RG/SG that looks like your CVO for lets say easy 10 grand less makes me smart??? 😂😂😂😂😂 Go follow the hype...😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
It does make me feel a little better when I see a dude that bought a standard and could've customized it anyway in the world but chose to make a CVO replica. That makes me feel a little better, i must admit.
I like the ‘ole fishing line trick
That always works too.

Another great technique! Thank You for watching 🤘🏽
what also works good is gasket remover for the residue and glue
Another good option 👍🏽

Another great method! Some people get scary around drills lol. Thank You 🙏🏽
I like the way you lined them up. That method eliminates the major hurdle I had with putting on that tank badge. thanks
It’s just one way of doing it. I could’ve gotten more OCD with it, but I took the softer approach lol. Thank You for watching 🤘🏽

I’ve definitely done it that way before. Each time is different. Sometimes it comes off, sometimes it doesn’t
I needed this for my project, Thanks!
Absolutely! It’s simple, and adds a little flavor
Hey! that's awesome! does that process applies for a matte color? in my case Industrial grey denim. Thanks
It’s the same procedure. I would be a little more cautious, because denim is less forgiving. It tends to scratch easier
@@RAIDERWORLD Thanks brother! I'll do it soon and post the result.
Props for doing that job what a mess. I may have just bought a new tank lol
It is a pain lol
I’ve been badgless, never going back.
Absolutely!
I like the one you took off 🤪
Haha! Hey, everyone has their own style. I didn’t dislike it, would’ve been cooler in black
We really love your work! Go ahead👊
Thank You! I really appreciate the support 🤘🏽
Looks good!
Thank You!
Awesome video as always
Thank You! You know I always appreciate the support 🙏🏽
That looks great. I’m going to get me a pair.
Thank You! It definitely adds a little style.
What material are the badges made from?
I’m 99% sure it’s billet Aluminum.
Fire 🔥👌
Thank You 🤘🏽
Sick 🔥🔥🇺🇸
Thank You 🤘🏽🇺🇸
Looks really good 👍🏾
Thank You! It’s the little things 👊🏽
Badges? We don’t need no stinking badges!
Haha yup
Depending on how old the bike is and where it’s been stored, you’re gonna have some paint discoloration guaranteed.
Absolutely! Nothing a little clear coat and polish can’t fix

Absolutely! Only get a CVO if you do not like working on your bike 🤣
