My plaque cover is the only Kawasaki emblem left. Has anyone bought one of these?

Does it really fit the vn1500? It's the only one I found like it and it comes all the way from Romania. Kinda hard to return if it doesn't work out.
lots on e bay that come from the US of A
I have this one on my 2001 Drifter and love it. Great quality and prefect fit.

I just took the stock one off, flipped it over and painted it semi-gloss black. Stuck it back on and I thought it looked great. Total cost, free with an old can of spray paint I had laying around. Total time, about an hour for the paint to dry.

I like that idea. Think I'll go with that. Easy and cheap!

How is it stuck on? Is it glued?

I been meaning to do just that.
I am glad to hear it works

Yeah, it's just held on with a light glue. I slipped a razor blade under the edge and just carefully worked it around until it popped free. I used a little silicone sealant to reattach, that way I could always pull it back off if I ever needed to and there'd be no damage.
