Is that the original badge?  I thought they were all the 'transfer' type lacquered over ??

[mlivkovich]

Original one. Rare and expensive! Also looks much better than just "S"

Thanks for that just what I need .
A very rare and expensive thing indeed
I had a k6 tank painted a few years ago The decals and S were £120 .
The sizes are for a different project .
Cheers

It's more like 19x3cm on a proper B/W K2 tank, but I was using a tape measure so curved it to match the tank.

On candy blue it is 18 cm, that is why candy blue is faster, little less resistance!

You mean being slower they can't handle the extra weight?

I do like those badges... but couldn't be arsed with the hassle of cleaning the polish out between the letters... and anyway... those badges will definitely slow the bike down with the additional wind resistance
