Post by: Devilock on March 04, 2012, 10:52 PM: Nice one!

Like your chrome family!

So what are the "Why Dont You" (red & yellow) style decals called?!!!
Title: Re: Hot Heart
Post by: monkian on March 04, 2012, 11:26 PM: Unfortunately the three beauties in the pics aren't mine. Mine look more like the Adams family ;D
I love them just as much though and they'll all be getting some TLC.

I'm not sure if I've seen a Heart Gusset survivor with the whodunit?? decals TBH ???
Here's some of the other generation Hot Hearts with them on:

Post by: Devilock on March 05, 2012, 12:06 AM: Cheers dude, appreciate it.

Ive seen the last 2 bikes before on the museum but not the first... My main concern was the exact positioning of the, as you say, 'who dunnit' decals! Were all the frame & forks sold naked?!
Title: Re: Hot Heart
Post by: bobbbbsy on March 05, 2012, 12:53 AM: so true hot hearts have an ugly middle gusset and no heart ???

I'd guess like other factory supplied framesets the decals would be shop fitted.
I really couldn't say for sure TBH ???

Hey, I like that boomerang gusset. Nothing ugly about it >:( ;)
This is a survivor currently being restored by Mick over on Oz.
No question marks on these down tube decals :D
