Anybody got any broken 500 badges that have the ‘F’ in orange still intact? Just need the ‘f’s for mine as they’re bright red and will look a bit crap on an orange bike so I would like to replace them if at all poss…….

Anyone?

Cheers

Yeah, I’m often on the look out for broken badgers

On this occasion it’s not my crap typing but your dodgy eyes

Quite fancy a banger though, they’re quite cool!

Ok you mithering bugger, I managed to find 2 for you, got them out of the badges and will need to redo the gold on the back of them or they won't look right. Will take me a couple of days but should be in the post by Monday.

Done the gold, 22kt gold I may add, don't pawn them you tight bugger  ;D ;D

Packaged up and will be posted Monday.

Still haven't found my collection of broken badges, took them out of some restored badges until the others show up. Didn't realise I had some many side panel badges, around 6 I think. Found another still on a side panel that needs repainting. More work  :( :( :(

Going back into the shed to do some more twiddling. Trying to take the chrome off my old clutch lever, found another good lever but they brass bush has fallen out of it somewhere and of course it doesn't want to be found.
