I don't think home printed waterslides are suitable for that.
But I can see how to something like that could be done with waterslide, I have done similar.

Cut a mask a bit bigger that the lettering, use the mask to apply size for the leaf, add gold leaf.
Do a black water slide that covers the gold leaf and has the lettering clear.

I used waterslides on push bike frames and they were pretty succesfull. I used gold leaf, silver leaf
and paint to provide bases for them.

Don't bother with inkjet use a laser.
I bought a cheap vinyl cutter to cut masking as I can't do it with a light box and scalpel anymore. 

I used the cheap chinese waterslide paper from ebay, I had no luck at all with the expensive papers.
I stopped using water after I had decals fall off, I use Decalfix or Microsol/Microset.

It's much easier to buy them.

Hello. The originals of my 9A are a bit finer and more filigree than the men can buy. Photo collection of all year and models of original Tranfers would be a good thing. Is there something like that already? Greetings from Germany. Claudius

Hello. Attached is a photo of an original headstock graphic ca. 1930. The decal you show is visually the same, however as you know the original is in gold leaf. I hope this helps you. Many thanks.

Hello. Has anyone already compared the steering head sticker with original 1932 from this period? There are already differences. Have for comparison a 9A. No one had ever tried to push the powerful pen aside and tested. Do not think all the right stickers are received. Greetings from Germany.Claudius

Hello, folks.
Just a word about printing your own waterslide transfers. They work on light coloured backgrounds - after a fashion, but not on black backgrounds. The inkjet colour printing is also translucent so whatever the background colour is, is comes through if the transfer backing is clear. I tried some when I was restoring an ancient bicycle a while ago and was very disappointed. Waterslide transfers need to be properly made with opaque inks/paint.

Hello Claudius, I'm not sure I understand the problem but if it's just the size of the transfer you can print water transfers yourself. There is special paper for that. So first reduce the size of the emplem, print and apply.

Hello. My 9A from 1932 is in absolute original condition, only 16,800 km since new. Bought new in Cologne, the machine outlasted the robbery by Nazis immured. My question: does anyone know where I can get such a sticker? I need that for my second machine 7A also 1932. Unfortunately I found nothing. The Sunbeam bike is something but with writing. The original ones are without writing, only the sun. Does somebody has any idea? Only Sunbeam I found ... is bicycle . Greetings from Germany. Claudius
