      Gotta admit, it took me a few moments (with closer looks at your pics) to finally actually recognize what the "misprint" is. Now that I do -- what a *wonderful* (not to mention no doubt quite *rare*?!) sign panel it is -- CONGRATS on a FABULOUS score!! Do you work for a Harley dealer/sign shop/etc, or it it something you just randomly came across someplace else??

      and I'd be one of those people that'd fish such a "whoopsie" thing outta the dumpster at a sign shop if I had access to such things... ;-) :-) Hope whoever the employee was that actually did the 'whoopsie' didn't likewise get canned himself... :-(

      Thanks guys, what year do you think it'd be or be close to? Any info would be highly appreciated

      I still don’t see it, that surprises me as a long time Harley fan of anything, but then again, my vision is limited right now and every letter I touch, seri is repeating it and bout to drive me up the wall!!! I’ll check back when on my pc! Oh, and as far as a date, lol closely at the sides and edges for tiny print and it will also make the claim of being “official “

      @ shareurpassion -- the key is mostly in Carson33's 2nd pic. Look closely and you'll notice that, somehow or other, the actual HD logo got printed (albeit perfectly correctly by itself) onto the face of the plastic sign panel *upside down* in relation to the molded in 'logo shape' which it was no doubt intended to match...WHOOPSIE indeed...? <wink><giggle>

      One can now only be left to wonder how many other such 'official misprints' might have otherwise anyways made their way out into the world to actual HD lighted signs outside actual existing HD dealerships...?? <LOLOL>

      Yep! I totally see it now, back on my PC! That's pretty funny!
