    The 650 covers won't even be close.... Your only choice is the used market unless you luck into a set of NOS covers. You're also restricted to '80-81 Special covers, as all other models are shaped differently as well as mounting differently. Time to start searching fleabay....

      I don't think those will fit but THESE WILL.http://www.ebay.com/itm/1981-YAMAHA-.../370573634892?

      A bit pricey though. But they do have the badges, those are getting difficult to find.

      I got a set for my 79S a while back off ebay for $40. You just have to watch.

        I was just looking at those covers again. Those are 80 covers, they will fit but the 81 has a little different badge.

          Welcome to the site sicko. Those side covers are hard to come by (without paying through the nose). When it warms up I may be trying my hand with making fiberglass side covers but that’s still a ways off. Good luck finding some.
