That's pretty weird, D1...  I had just seen the same badges on a google image search, and had the same thought!

Do you actually have a set?  If they do, how do they fit the tank?  That was my biggest obstacle in making up my 800 badges - tank fit.

GB no I don't have a set of these , but had them in my picture file for some time now . I don't have anyone around here to make a set for me . I'll keep an eye out to see if I can find one to match up with the tank . My vision is these would look relatively well on the tank .

Here's the collection so far with one addition for side cover...

What a great job, if you ever bring these projects to life, i would definitely buy a couple of sets! Keep it up, and congrats!

I'm working on it.  I have a cast brass baseplate from a mid '50's Royal Enfield. There is a member of this forum who offered to CNC a brass plate insert with a Drifter logo in an Indian type face.  I sent him a file and am waiting to hear if he can machine a plate according to the artwork.  Here's is what I hope it will look lie.

JMBO:  if you find that you need extra badges I found these - supposed to be brass - looks cheap to me.

JMBO:  did you ever get your tank badge finished and on your bike??  Last I remember, you posted a picture of the final artwork, but I dont' remember seeing the final product.  We'd like pics!!! ;D

Sorry, like others have said it is in the gallery section. If you would like to see it in person, I am just 15 minutes from Burlington. I think I saw your Drifter at Menard's last weekend!
