Title: Day glow orange stripes for Le Mans 1000 fairing?
Post by: Denis on June 20, 2015, 07:37:25 AM

Is there a source for the orange day glow stickers for the Le Mans fairings up through '87?

I think these are the ones, although it doesn't say for a Le Mans 1000.

Dang, sold out! Either they are popular or no one ever buys them!

Usually they are made in small batches and are available for a while, till they are gone and then you have to wait till another batch is made. But check Harper's (maybe call is better with them) and Moto International.

Any good graphics guy can make them if he has one to copy.

Those are for the Le Mans III. The Le Mans 1000 versions come to a point and don't wrap around to the headlight.

Thanks for the correction. Looking in Greg Field's book, I see the difference now.

Yeah, I meant to come back yesterday and post once I realized the III stripes differ from the 1000.
