Yes, yellow.
An unexpected sight.
On U.S. 522 southbound, about four miles north of Winchester, Virginia, at 4:20 EDST or so p.m. today (Mon, 31 Aug).
The guy was traveling LD, as he had bags of some sort and gear on the pillion post.
This wasn't a "mightabeen" or "couldabeen," but a Griso. Unmistakable sound, too.
Did have some sort of smallish "shark's jaw" or flame decal on tank. Didn't get a good look at tank as I was focusing on engine to be sure and I was across the median.
Would have given chase but I was in my beloved POS 93 Toy pickup -- which can barely keep up with its front bumper -- and I was hauling a 1L water tank. Empty, as full would have had my tailgate on the pavement!
Wonder who that was.

Mark Tenney's is yellow, but I don't remember it having any decal on the tank.

Ah. Thanks. Interesting.
Did not know that Mark had a giallo Griso. Thought only Texan Sam Baker had one before it (not Sam! :wink:) departed this life in 2011. RIP. :cry:
The "decals" may just have been too-quick call of what might just have been his riding pants! Doh. :rolleyes:

IIRC Mark's Griso also has some big red horns and/or handguards that might be mistaken for flame decals at speed?
