     That does look very good. I wish I had a picture of my buddy's bike with the bullet hole stickers all over it. Like no one knows why those things are all over his bike...I think your system is much more discreet! (Not sure you can get away with that too many times on the same bike though! ;D)

Chip, it looks fine!  Try not to add too many, though.  Never did get the "bullet hole" look....   :-\

Nice addition to the bike,  Look like it came with the mufflers.  I'll bet these wll not be on mufflers without scratches,  whatcha think ?

That looks great on there.  You actually had me thinking about putting them on mine and I don't have any scratches.  I just looked at mine and I don't think that would look quite as good on the stock mufflers though.  On yours, it looks like it should be there.  Fantastic solution.  You are just lucky the scratch was in just the right spot to do something like that.  It probably wouldn't look right except for right where yours is placed.

That looks good chip.  Good thing you didn't have the scratch somewhere else.  Probably wouldn't have had the same appeal as that does.

It's metal.

Has stayed right there for 40 miles so far.


May fall off Monday but I will get another and try to find some adhesive that will keep it stuck there.

Was working on the 03 this afternoon and thought about this thread.
After 444 miles at good speed the emblem is still there.
I think it's a keeper.

Chip, I think it looks great but the down side will be when the MOCO sees it,  adds it to their new bikes and wants an additional $50 bucks per bike
