I just looked at the new photos of the 86 & 87 vmax's that George has (sweet looking BTW!!!). I'm wondering one thing. I noticed that the "YAMAHA" lettering on the 86 snowflap is gold in color. Not white. Is that stock? Were they like that new? Was that a custom touch? Or is that just they way it looked in the photo?
Just wondering...
86 snowflap in "your vmax" section
Re: 86 snowflap in "your vmax" section
The snowflaps on the V-Max's came in black. That was purely a custom touch. If you look at the strut covers on my 86 you will see that I did the same thing. I always thought that Yamaha missed out on the subtle details that would have enhanced the look of that sled.Vmxhunter wrote:I just looked at the new photos of the 86 & 87 vmax's that George has (sweet looking BTW!!!).

This is the way the 87 to 91 came up here in Canada. My 90 has the Gold trim around the logo while my 87 was Silver around it. Again this is the way they came New. Same with on the strut area.
Keep on Sledding, Mild to Wild
