Mars Bar is a nice classic paint scheme but if you want to stand out from the crowd, and why wouldn't you then Wrangler would be my choice.
Is it on an LC or YPVS?

Yep, you're a couple of years older than me, which would be the difference. |

Not a lover of wrangler personally but everyone is different.
My own Lc is Mars bar and the 250 I’m on with is going to be a bounty.
If I were to go for anything different it would be black with red speed blocks.

A mate of mine had a 250LC which he had painted in Wrangler colours in 85-86, he loved it and so did lots of other people, it was mars bar before that, I thought "O" "no" what have you done, pretty sure the wheels were yellow on that one, personally I like Embassy colours best.

I did but it gets stupid pricey 😖 Steve How much are you being quoted? It cost me £750 ish it’s a graphic set with separate akai sheene decals. The only thing I’m thinking is my panels etc are carbon so I’m guessing you’d need the black done. |

The only thing I’m thinking is my panels etc are carbon so I’m guessing you’d need the black done. Not asked about that scheme specifically As it's a hybrid I'm using a tzr muddy. I have a NOS black muddy so if going mars I don't need it painted and it's £700 Wrangler would need a muddy painted and it's £850 Your scheme may not be much different price wise Anyway, stop it, I really like yours but that's a 3rd choice, I'm struggling at 2 😆 Steve |

Veg's fault, I've went rogue but kept it retro My problem with Wrangler was thinking people wouldn't remember it, I ain't going yellow frame/wheels and I want gold wheels and not sure it would go together So Mr Cordwell is booked in the scheme below (no belly, no rd350 on sides, no signature) Steve  |

My apologies for having designed such a cool scheme 😁. I’d look at white wheels if I was doing it again.
Good man great choice 👍

I wish they only ever painted the LC in one colour. My original was red, but always fancied the bounty..... I now have a bounty.... but really wish it was a mars.

What's the opinion of getting the gold Yamaha above the stripe on the tank as well as the Akai

I had the tuning fork and yamaha in gold above look at mine, I like it. I didn’t want the akai as I’d done enough advertising for them already.

I was thinking it could do with a bit more Yamaha in the livery. I'd be tempted to tack the Yamaha logo in place, look at it from a bunch of angles and make the call from there.

I'd have "Yamaha" where the "Akai" is on the tank sides personally Dusty |
