Does anyone know where to get those decals in the Norton font that say Honda? I'd like to try and get them in a maroon/reddish color.

Try a shop that does graphics work, they should most likely have a vinyl plotter to cut out anything you can design.

Yep, pretty much custom.

I found this for you, I'm not a member of the forum there so I can't see any pics, but it sure sounds like what you're looking for.

PM Ray, MyHondas is his forum name. He owns a sign shop and bet he could do it for you.

Try and find someone in your area that can handpaint them for you, will look way nicer than a decal or vinyl imho.

That would be ideal for me too, when I had my 350 tank done the guy was just starting his custom paint shop and did a great job, painted the original lines on with the 72 honda racing green metallic/candy color, but that was 5 yrs ago and I haven't heard of him since then.

Don't do it! Honda logos are for Hondas! Norton logos are for Nortons. Who are you trying to fool?

Guns_Up · « **Reply #14 on:** June 07, 2012, 07:17:57 AM »

I like the cursive writing of the old Indian's and Norton's. My 350 is completely stock, my 750 I'm working on will be a little customized for me, but I am keeping it to the point that if I want to (or if I ever sell it) I can put it back to stock with some new paint and a few minor things. I have kept all the original parts and have cleaned them up and boxed them up for safe keeping so I still have them.

AnthonyMichael · « **Reply #15 on:** June 07, 2012, 09:00:44 AM »

I'm surprised no one calls them Hortons at this point. And unless you're combining the two bikes put that sticker on there is almost as silly as a sticker that says "cafe racer"

Hey, if you cross a Honda with a Norton, wouldn't you have a Horton?

Guns_Up · « **Reply #18 on:** June 07, 2012, 05:56:53 PM »

Thanks 69, but myhondas - Ray- got back to my PM and made up some pretty awesome ones, and in the right color

If they called them Hortons it would be a lot easier to find them instead of honda/norton decals.

Stev-o · « **Reply #19 on:** June 07, 2012, 06:05:13 PM »

Tip for install: lightly spray some water on tank before vinyl is applied.

PS. Ray makes some really nice keychains.

Greetings. Newbie to this forum. Saw this post and I had to chuckle. This is what's in my garage right now.

bjatwood · « **Reply #23 on:** August 25, 2012, 07:22:48 AM »

I like "Horta" better than Horton, it just blends better....

malcolmgb · « **Reply #24 on:** August 25, 2012, 10:55:51 AM »

Yes, but it isn't a mix of Honda & Norton

maybe Nonda
