Hello Evripidis, if you are a perfectionist relocate der Emblem 1 on both sides. You will destroy the self adhesive Rubber- Inlet on the Backseide of the Emblem. New Original Emblems will costs around 45 EUR/each.
On serveral images of the Original TR1 Publications, there is to see, that these Emblems are slidly differend in tehr Position on the Fuel-Tank. I think it is a matter of handcrafted Application. Additional to that, the Emblems are showing tendency forword up, a little bit.
So, my Tipp, if you want to change the position: The Motorcycle on both wheels, perhaps with a separate helping hand.
Try try to create a horizontal line on both sides. Thereby use pinter-tape, because its is earier to remove at the End. HOW TO: a) Try to set the Painter-Tabe horizontal on the Side of the Fuel-Tank. Use it as lower level for your new Position of the Emblem. b) messure the Position from the surface and reply it exact on the oposide. c) you can middle the distance betwen forward curve and rear curve or what ever. The only think, do it on both side of the Fuel Tank in the same way. d) if you have the new position fixed, applicate the Emblems.
The both pictures are showing the same Bike. The upper Image shows how the Emblem is applicated originaly (possible). It is parallel to the Points, if the Fuel Tank sits on your Work-Bench, without Fuel-Cocks. The lower Image shows the way I discribed abow.
Hope that helps you
Kind regards Anja
