The "Limited Edition" tank badge and the gold swoops on the sidecovers are most likely dealer installed. Probably to denote or celebrate the dealer's building of a full touring XS11; fairing, bags, Ez Berg type seat, Harley style full fender and probably a bunch more stuff. I did somewhat of the same thing when I was a dealer selling the Elevens. Not everyone liked the Yamaha plastic so we built what we thought were 'better machines', to coin a phrase.

If Karla comes to the VYR, we can ask her.-Mike

I just realized it IS the same bike. I remembered seeing something similar on Craig's list, but I never looked at the location for original post jpiombo67.Last edited by Radioguylogs; 06-02-2021, 11:36 PM.-Mike
