    New skid lid!

    Last night I was gifted a brand new, Harley Davidson skid lid. 30 years old, still in the box. Came with a nice purse to carry it in. No oil leaks either Just gotta remove that front emblem. I think a hair dryer should do it. Hoping it's just adhesive








    Makes for a nice, spare emergency helmet in my F6B's saddlebag. I don't wear a half lid, but good for a backup.

    Be careful when you remove the emblem, there will be oil everywhere!

    Sweet, once you pop off the offensive badge your bike will go much faster. Studies show that wearing HD shirts, bandanas, wallets and whatever else, while riding the F6B, will slow your bike by 30% and make it run hotter.

    I need to find a Honda emblem or something synonymous with the F6B itself.

    F6B side cover badge? It may be a little too large.

    You should be able to find a goldwing badge and modify it.
    Or design one your self and have it 3D printed.
    Have some extras made.
    I'll buy one or two.
    ITS ALL GOOD

    (Harley Davidson skid lid. 30 years old) 2023 makes it 20 years old, but I'm sure it will survive another 10 years in your bag.

    Will, I think I would leave that HD Badge alone. That identifies the lid as an "Anniversary Edition".

    Too late. It has been de-Harley'ized.
