Anyone know where I can get a set of these without taking out a mortgage?
TIA

Stop being such a bloody cheapskate 😀😀😀😀 Yamiya ones are excellent and not too pricey in the great scheme of things. Or, replica ones are a lot cheaper but they they don't have the HM on them, just like those in your picture.

Circa £60 delivered! For a couple of badges. I must be out of touch.
Think I'll keep my 'incorrect' red ones thanks.

If you didn't buy the real replica badges everytime you ride your beautifully restored bike somewhere someone will comment about the non-original badges 😭.
When I restored my Morini 350 Sport I bought a replica 'Sport' badge for the top yoke, it looked great in the photo but when it arrived it was made of cheap plastic. In the end I bought a 'real' replica item in metal from a guy in NZ. It cost over £50 but everytime I ride it, look down at the instruments and see it I know I did the right thing. Go for it, its Easter 🐇.
