The emperor has no clothes

My bike came with the emblems removed. I've wanted for years to put on Euro badges, but I'm just too cheap to pop for them. Anyway I found some maiden head badges on eBay or Amazon dirt cheap a while back. I've always thought there wasn't much definition with them being mostly all chrome. So I got some model paint in a color very close to the green of my I/S. This is what I did.

Very Nice!   :cooldude:

Considered doing something like that to my fat gurl.   I like it.

Looks nice...good idea. A subtle yet tasteful modification to add to the looks of an already beautiful bike.

ps..... I like your grass down there ;)

I like.

I want to remove the Honda Gold emblems from my Green IS, and move to the Black one I picked up.

Haven't looked yet for the installations instructions.

But what you did might make things a lot easier, and more custom/unique for my bike.

Just looked, they are on Valkyrie Norway manual page.

I installed the expensive European Badges.  :) They are about one inch shorter than the American Version. ???
Because they are shorter it makes the Fat I/S tank look even fatter.  :coolsmiley:

Actually, the badges make no reference to "VALKYRIE."  :o  They read "HONDA F6C Flat 6 Custom."
