I have some K1 badges which are the same as the KO except for the color. I lined them up with my K4 badges and the tangs are in the same spot. So it looks like they will work for you.

Where can you get K0 badges? Yamiya?

Mine are the original that came with this bike. I just painted them and you can not tell they are that old.

How would it look if you used newer ones and blacked out the center of the leters?

You could do that Don and repaint them. I know the inside of the letters have that dimple look, so you would have to paint a light coat if you want to keep that. Paint would need to be thin. I think it would work though.
