Blue or Black??
I need to replace the 'LIQUID COOLED' emblems on the barrels. I always thought they should be blue for a 1976 A, but someone said that they should have a black background not blue, but only blue are available. The ones I currently have are blue and I am pretty sure they are originals. Can someone clarify please? Thanks.

These are brand new from Suzuki, blue to me, They are to replace tatty ones on the bike which are also blue ('76 A model) If you look at the Brochures on Jarmo's history site the L and M look distinctly black but the A and B look distinctly blue.

Re: Blue or Black??
Years ago when I ordered some of those liquid cooled stickers from "crooks suzuki" I got blue ones. I always thought they should be black. Maybe it is model related. Anyway my "L" has blue ones. Nobody has ever said what colour sticker do you want?. Maybe I should have said it was for an 750L.
