A surprisingly uncommon item it would seem, after searching most of the
usual outlets. Anyone aware of a source for green bar tape, prefer some
"cork" style...not Tressostar cotton or Bennoto Cello.

Well, the Nashbar handlebar tape comes with a Green Camo option, but
somehow I doubt that's what you're looking for...

They list Tressostar in green, but the OP specifically did not want
that.

http://velo-orange.com

They do have some really nice leather bar covers, but not in green.

Yes, and exactly the same shade as Deda "Kawasaki" green - possibly made
in the same place.
