Re: Sport badge

Thanks everybody for your suggestions. I have decided to try Revell Chrome paint on my badge. I have seen it used on another forum for coating a Cibie light reflector and it looks superb. The aerosol is small and expensive so I hope it works. I will post updates on here shortly.

Re: Veglia electronic Tachometer problem

I contacted Peter Bond some years ago and he said he would not work on these.

Re: Sport badge

Thank you both for your suggestions.

I have been in a few model shops but the chrome paint looks more like silver to me not really chrome.

This is proving to be more tricky than I thought.

Sport badge

My Sport badge looks very scruffy now. Can anyone recommend a suitable chrome paint that will work on this plastic badge ?
thank you.
Dave.

Re: left hand gearchange conversions

I believe they were fitted on the models sold in the USA.

Re: Convert choke to bar mount lever

It was a generic lever as used on old British bikes. About £10 at an autojumble or Ebay.

Re: Convert choke to bar mount lever

I've had this for many years and never had a problem with it. Handy on cold mornings to keep the tickover a little higher.

Re: 250 VEE parts wanted

Update on this, I now have a good condition toolbox, the bars I can buy new although expensive and the chain guard I can possibly make by modifying something found at an auto jumble. Netley Marsh AJ is soon so hoping to find something there..
