I have two questions about a total restoration on a 69 T120 Bonniville. First question is what color are the tank badges supposed to be? I have seen white with black lettering, and I have seen Cream with black lettering. My second question is where do I find a replacement mirror and how does it mount?

The badges would have been white originally. You often see cream because that's what the original white fades to.

I'm not sure about your mirrors. Someone here will know, though.

And ... let me just go ahead and tell you ... they're all gonna demand pics of this bike ... so ... let's have 'em.

So as not to prove T100rc a liar..........we want pics!

I appreciate the information. I have not figured out how to post the pictures?

The Big Bobber · 05-01-2008

Well I guess I have figured it out. So as you can see I'm about 90% complete.

Try Rabers motorcycle parts in Ca. www.rabers.com

They bought up all Meridian stock in Nor Cal when Hinkley started up. They should have mirrors. They clamped onto the handle bars.

I have a 1970 T 120 Bonnie and the tank badges are cream (off white) with black lettering.

Hope this helps.

Black lettering on a WHITE background, Big Bobber. Looks real nice! Will you indulge me being a tiny bit pickey???? The horn is facing the wrong way and you need to secure the clutch cable............... there I've said it now, IMHO. Bet you can't wait to ride her? Interesting the painted fenders, is it a Home / general export bike? For USA I would have expected Stainless.

I always liked the looks of that color combo in the sunlight.

Sweet ride. Wanna trade?
