Default decals knock-off wheel spinner direction

Does any one make a decal for the aforementioned using Jag front and rear-end components and halibrand wheels?

Default Good Idea...

to have decals, but where would you put it?

On a related note, I wonder why someone (Trigo?) doesn't cast in "UNDO" with an arrow, like the old (Jag/Triumph/etc.) knock-off spinners had? Then there wouldn't be any doubt...not "authentic", but useful.

The decal, could be put on the inner lip of the rim, much like a wheel weight but less noticable. Someone must make-um!

Just stamp a little arrow on the outside of the spinner either on one of the ears or the center close to the spindle. No one would really see it. They have a L and R stamped on the back.
Just remember, they come off the same direction as the tire rotates going forward.

My SPF had stickers on all 4 wheels. Took them off. If I still had them, they'd be yours. Check with SPF dealer

I'm sure any local engraver worth his salt could etch a nice arrow into them. Or someone with a CNC machine and a lot of free time on their hands.

Thanks for your suggestions... I have an SPF dealer near me I'll give him a try. I also have a steel stamping set that might have an arrow on it.. Again many thanks... Summer is coming........Ride safely
