I've owned early Paramounts and early Treks - both with screwed on badges. Very fussy and delicate work to get the head tube tapped right, and it seemed one screw or the other was always working loose. Once those microscopic screws hit the floor, well, you get the picture. Not sure about all the Riv models, but the badge on my Bombadil is taped on using 3M automotive trim tape - very secure stuff. Agree it stands off the surface just a bit, but not enough to really worry about. I had to remove the first badge and change to the new gold version a week or so ago. I was a little surprised how tightly the tape held the badge on. As much as I like the look of screw heads on badges, (and the Bombadil does not have any vacant holes for phantom screws) I'll take the trim tape any day.
