Take the fork out and you will see 2 rivet heads inside the steerer tube. Knock them off with a flat ended punch and the badge will come off.
The rivets are part off the head badge, very soft metal. You'll have to use hot glue or number plate tape to stick it back on, or maybe drill the badge and use new rivets. See: http://raleigh-sb4059.com/2012/04/09/de ... ster-2012/

The rivets are not visible from the front. The rivets were formed as part of the badge when it was made. They go through two holes in the head tube and were hammered over from inside the head tube to hold it on. That's how it was on my '88 Ritmo.

Concur what what 'rubberlegs' says!
Dave Marsh will most likely have a brand new alloy badge.

Ah right, that makes sense. I've just seen the back of a badge on ebay which shows the two pins. I guess once the badge is off it can't be refitted or is there a way to nicely remove it?
On a similar track, does anyone know how the bottom bracket cable guide is usually fitted? Just a threaded screw or a similar rivet?
