HRC Badging

Aloha. I’m looking at a suburban that has a different decal. It’s a a HRC Decal overlaid the outline of America. It’s a 1986 version

Any help or thoughts would be appreciated.

Re: HRC Badging

HRC = Honda Racing Corporation. This was a division of Honda formed in 1982, for the development and support of motorcycle racing. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honda_Racing_Corporation

It's likely a period-correct sticker, but is not specific to a GM vehicle in any way.

Do you known that first hand or relying on google? The logo is different. I thought it posted but here’s the pic.

That info is from google. I know nothing about motorcycle racing.

Most of the honda racing decals on google show the letters with an american flag. It wouldn't surprise me at all if other decals used the usa map instead, like yours did. It's just that none of those have survived as Ebay-available stickers or as digital copies.

The font thing is throwing me for a bit of a loop, as well.
