You painted it yourself? If so what kind of sprayer etc did you use. It looks good.

thanks pacer!! actually my years of being a broke kid kinda helped me there, its all spray paint but im really happy the way it turned out, i took my time with it and did a ton of coats properly, and used a race replica decal set to pull it together, theres a minor inperfection where one of the windshield nuts are but sides for that she looks almost like a factory paint job!

I have one as well. It was a made for Yamaha as it is stamped/embossed right in front of the gas cap. I have seen a couple on ebay over the years, but none lately.
