Tank emblems
« on: July 04, 2014, 10:23:57 AM »
Hi,
I have my 75k tank stripped down to the bare metal. Previous owner had filled in the indentions on side of tank with filler.
Honda logo's were foam taped on. I have ground out the filler. How do the logo's originally mount in those indentions

Which model?
CB750 Honda badges have 2 pins to be sticked thru 2 holes. A clip in each hole will hold it in place.
Here photo of clip when I mounted it in my NEW tank with a proper 'tool'.

You have the holes visible and free of filler?

It's a 75K. It looks like the strip with the holes has been removed. just the indention now.

Def not a 500 as they were not made in '75.

You could make it easier to help you, 75k still means little, a re-type doesn't do much.

Guessing you gotta scavenge the strip from a junk tank or off a member. Probably too obscure for repro's
