    XS11 Emblem Restoration

    My Emblems were looking pretty shot. I used a Krylon gold leaf pen to touch them up. Came out pretty good.

    Side cover emblems look good, but the tank emblems probably should have had a quick touch with 600 grit wet/dry.

      Ray, I think the emblem you are referring to is the one on the rear of the seat cowl. I purchased new tank emblems from Rucksack Grunt several years ago and they did not need restoration. However, a little sanding would have smoothed that surface nicely..
