I have a 2006 neon blue SM, and was considering changing the tank badge to a one of the "mouth organ" types. Does anyone have a picture of a SM, with stock painted tank colors, with one of those badges mounted? Before I order a set, I'd like to see how the "mouth organ" badge fits with the tank's paint scheme.
thanks

you'll have to imagine the neon blue tank or photoshop it

Is this what you mean?

These are before and after pictures on my '03. One of the big reasons that I wanted to repaint the bike was to capture some of the classic (mid '60s) styling and because the old-style tank badge didn't seem to work with the factory paint job (in my opinion).

Wow....those are all very nice bikes...those pics give me a good indication of how that badge will look. I have this small dent just under my heritage badge, that will get covered over very well by the mouth organ badge.
Thanks so much
