    Custom metallic fork badges

    The badges on the K5 GSXR forks on my SV were faded/missing, leaving behind an ugly faded rectangle, and being unable to find an OEM replacement I took a shot at getting some custom metallic badges made. Set up a vector Showa logo in Illustrator and sent off for some 38x15mm metallic badges from case-badges.com.

    Came in today and I'm pretty pleased. They are somewhat thin, and if you look very closely there is some blur around the logo, but overall nice quality for a few bucks each.





    Now thinking about sending out for a second batch with the Showa "arrows" logo to match the original exactly. Having a time finding a clean example to work from so far. Actually have no idea why these particular forks were badged as 95% of the images I find are badgeless.

    Have a couple extra sets of these as there is a minimum order.

    Let me know if you are aware of any other good sources for metal badges with a high level of customization (exact mm dimensions, bevel, material, color, etc)

    Not completely obvious but that little blank rectangle was driving me nuts before!
