  • Emblems

    Who is a good supplier for Tank and Side Cover Emblems? I am getting ready to re-paint the Battle Cruiser and putting the old emblems back won't seem right since they are rather dinged and ratty. All I have seen on Ebay recently are stickers and I guess I am too much of a purist to put a piece of tape on my fresh paint.

    I just spent 20 minutes going through Golf Cart web pages on Google looking for these damn badges when all I needed to do was search here and I found it in 20 seconds.
    Unbelievable.

    2 bucks for a brand new one. I need to replace mine as well.

    From Nashville Bill:
    I bought mine at: Boswell's Golf Car Sales - 403 Fessler's Lane - Nashville, TN 37210 - (615)256-0737. They were $2.83 each and the part number is JN6-F4161-01-00.

        BLUEJEEPLAB;

        If you want NEW emblems, try Oldbikebarn.com. Brand new cast metal emblems (not cheap at $20 plus each) but they are perfect.

        Be aware that because they are cast metal, the finished product is 2% smaller than stock.

        Not noticeable to the eye, but you will have to drill and tap the flange on the tank to accept one of the screws. Just line up one and drill the other. SLOWLY!

          Originally posted by Jeff As I said... the golf cart emblems are nearly identical to the originals other than being chrome. They cover the exact same area on the tank side, the screw holes are the exact same size and spacing and they use the exact same screws that mounted the original badge. Other than being chrome... the ONLY other difference is a slight difference in the cut in around the top and bottoms of the letters. The lack of cut in is better IMHO in that it gives less on the badge to snag on things and break.
          They are a DIRECT screw on replacement with no modifications needed to either the bike or the badge.

            Sure, but what about the side cover emblems?
