Title: Old 60mm Roundel?
Post by: RonR65 on July 11, 2014, 08:12:46 PM

My R65 just arrived today and the tail was repainted and the Roundel is missing.  I've looked high and low and can only find new ones.  But I want it to match the tone of the tank badges - yellowed.

Any advice on "toning" a new Roundel or perhaps somebody has an oldie lying around?

Thanks,

Nice bike ... you may have to replace them all Motobins and Motorworks stock them.
