If you're a biker looking for a great patch to sew on the back of your leather vest, The Cheap Place has the V-Twin patch in its Biker Patches section. Of course, you probably wouldn't replace a club patch if you're a member somewhere, but for lone wolves or casual bikers this patch is an excellent choice. Its 12-inch size and gleaming gold color look awesome against black or brown leather, especially on a sunny day.
What I like best about this patch is that its classic styling is reminiscent of the early days of the v-twin engine. The v-twin had been around since World War I on military motorcycles, but Harley Davidson really brought it to life in the 1940s with their 61 in.³, 1300cc Flathead and Knucklehead models. These engines were huge for their day and are largely responsible for the rumbling, throaty reputation Harley-Davidson's are still known for. For some bikers it's the v-twin or nothing.
The V-Twin patch has die cut edges so it can be applied securely to your leather vest or jacket with a needle and thread. You can also apply it to most fabrics with the convenient iron-on backing - no sewing needed! But regardless of the material, having this patch displayed on your back is sure to catch plenty of eyes as you drive by. Spice it up with a rocker patch above or below, and you'll really have a good look.
