      Wow!

      You fell into a gold mine! For someone who wants a quality badge, the price isn't bad and if tw19800 can vouch for them, then that looks like a hell of a deal. Just what we need to make a nice paint job pop!

        Cool...

        Indeed that is impressive...but disappointing too as they dont have side cover emblems... "Maxim"...guess I'm lucky mine are still fairly intact

          Just a note:I went on live chat and they told me they were black and chrome.I ordered them and they were gold chrome and black like the stock color for my 80 special.It's hard to tell on a computer if the pics are silver or gold chrome.

            Do the tank emblems from Mikes XS fit?? They look like the mounting holes are in the same position and are a bit cheaper.

              I'm a little annoyed at myself for not keeping the website for the company I got mine from that was located in Australia. (I'm in New Hampshire, US) I first got that link from a member here who posted it in a discussion.

              They weren't exactly cheap at $50 each but they sure are quality. I was surprised how heavy they were when they arrived...Metal, not plastic. FYI, the tank emblems were plastic though.

              Here's one set on my yet-to-be finished 1100SH. You may notice that these are the emblems actually for my SG but I switched the tanks and side covers on my bikes so I could have my SG Candy Red which is how I had the SH painted. Hmmm....follow all that?

                OK, I just checked my Paypal history and here's who I ordered them from...

                Brian Cutler
                Email:
                cutler@vicnet.net.au

                Kind of hard to see the ones I put on my SG but I'll post this photo anyways.
