A few weeks ago I changed out my stock badges for these, which I LOVE...I also bobbed both fenders and put M-Bars on.

I have been thinking about the Classic Badges from Triumph. Anyone have any pics of these installed on thier bikes? Possibly a blue Thruxton? Love to see them. http://www.triumphmotorcycles.com/us...pup.aspx?GID=2

The standard 2005 T-100 "eyebrow" badges....
Love it!
But I would not mind the "waffle" looking badges....

The classic Badges look much to large and if you have a 2 tone colour scheme then they hide the coach lines, on the other hand the Heritage badges look perfect.

I'm tempted to put harmonica style badges on my Scram.
There's a member here who's done it to his blue & white Scram, & I love it.

I have Heritage badges on the T-100 scheme right now, but I think I'm going to go back to the eyebrow badge. The Heritage looks great on solid colors, but I like the stock eyebrow on T-100 schemed bikes. The "classic" aka "mouth organ" only looks good to me on two toned colored bikes like the Scrambler... I bought them, and sold them after having them on my Goodwood Green tank for a couple of weeks. Aesthetically, they were too big for my taste.
Here are the Heritage badges on the T-100 tank:
I've got to get those stickers off of the side covers too...

My opinion also.

Same here. I have the Heritage badges on my T100, but they don't look as good as I hoped they would. They definitely look better on single color bikes. I'm gonna put my stock eyebrow badges back on soon and sell these.
