Dang those diamond emblems are expensive!
« on: November 28, 2010, 07:24:00 PM »
Rant over......

Anyone got some spares?

I know I have seen these in blue somewhere in the past but can't find them now.  I have found red and orange so far.
I don't have a motorcycle, sold it ('85 Yamaha Venture Royale).  Haven't had a CB750 for over 40 years.

None of the CB750's had blue ones, so it must have been after-market. Blue would look nice on the blue K2 I'm building, I just paid Yamiya an arm and a leg for a pair of orange ones...........  :'(
I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

The blue one must have been aftermarket.  Yanno, I swear I have seen a repro that was just black and you had to paint it what you wanted.  Can't find that one either.  Figures, lol.

Wonder if Frankendude can make those?  He can make it one of those transparent glitter plastic and then you paint the outer edge black and the wing gold.
