And heres my we baby. Had this one for 25 years. Its a 1973. Great for buzzing around town and scaring people.

Wasn't easy doing all the masking and that, but im happy and think it was worth the effort.
For those that aren't long in the tooth or into classic bikes like me, this is a replica paint scheme of the Yamaha GP bikes (American colours) of approx. 1978-82.
Made especially famous by unbeatable Kenny Roberts TZ750 ass kicking the previously dominant Suzukis. There were many variartions on this paint scheme on road and dirt bikes thru too the 90s
