  • wanted to buy

    Hey everyone,
    I just know someone out there will be able to help me.
    I have finished 'restoring' my 1980 Heritage Special, and I decided to fill the tank badge holes [due to having to weld a hole where one of the badge mount plates was torn off] and now need decals to do the tank and side covers.
    Does anyone know where I can buy good quality Yamaha decals, along with a matching set or similar "1100" for the sidecovers?? Silver and balck would be great, but of course gold/black is perfect...........
    Thanks in advance......

    Thought, with the badge brackets off and filled, you can use XS650 or any model tank badges, they are dang close just not exact in size and hole pattern. They can be held on with body molding double sided tape, probably look good as or better than new. JAT
    Life is what happens while your planning everything else!

    When your work speaks for itself, don't interrupt.

      If you're looking at decals check with local sign makers. They can do most anything for final decals.

          There's no such thing as an XS1100 "Heritage" Special. It's either Standard, Special, or Midnight Special. The "Heritage" tag was only used on the smaller bikes.
