Anybody know how I can aquire GTR BADGES, And GTR tank protector here in the states? (My apologies if it has already been covered.) I would imagine that the matching top case that givi is coming out with has the backrest pad option? It is going on 3 months that my GATOR has sat at the dealership since I bought it. If it doesnt stop snowing soon I am gonna lose it! Take my word for it, do not buy a new bike in the middle of the winter if you can help it

I'd forgo the badges altogether. Bike looks MUCH sleeker with no emblems on at all.

I thought about that, and I think your right. Thanks for the reply

How easy to get off? Does it trash the badges?

I doubt you can remove them without trashing them.

I took mine off when the bike was ~3 weeks old. Just used a finger nail to get 'em started, then some wd40 and polish to get the left over adhesive residue off.

I really didn't care if I trashed mine or not. I got so fed up trying to get the dead bugs out of the all the corners of the lettering.

AND I guess few people know what it is!
Mmm....that appeals....

(I would leave the bugs in there...evidence!)

Hang in there. I bought mine on December 14th here in Indiana. I went on a trip for a meeting in Canada the following week where it was really cold and upon my return rode the bike home fifty miles in a cold drizzle. Two months later I had only managed to bring the odometer up to 120 miles. This past weekend however it finally warmed up a little and I got to ride so now the odometer shows 365 miles. Trust me, this bike is worth the wait and when it thaws out up there you will definitely not want to park it. Unfortunately it has turned cold here again and we have had some snow with more on the way but I did get to scratch my itch a little over the weekend and it was worth the wait.

Have I missed something here? The thread is about badges... Perhaps it's me...

The GTR badges can be ordered in Australia...Part Number 560540034 here. They are $57.15 Australian though....yes each!!!! Also the GTR Tank Pads are available too. The knee pads look good but don't fit where your knees go though..

Do You have some link for these badges, tank pads and other things? With todays postal servise, it's not important where shop is...

And I just wanna to ask about relief letters... Does anybody knows where 3D letters, like Kawasaki has on the armour, are available? It's not important exactly font, but 3D and chrome effect, with which can be some name or other labels fixed on bike's tank or armour? And to compile my own labels?
