Should I repaint chin scoop with original "YAMAHA" or "FJ1200"?

Hi guys,

I just had my chin scoop repaired and it is going to paint next week.  I'm considering replacing the "YAMAHA' on the chin scoop with "FJ1200".  What do you guys think?

If offered I would vote "either", I voted for FJ1200 since it would be subtle and still look good for the bike. You might not be asked "what bike is that?" as often.....

Now there is a novel concept, cover your FJ1100/1200 with 600cc references and go looking for other wannabees on half liter bikes that want to race...Like hiding a V8 in Gremlin and putting mud flaps on to hide the wide rear tires (old school)......Kookaloooo

Or after you smoke a 1200 he thinks he got it from a 600  :dash2:

Yamaha or nothing, FJ1200 would look tacky JMO

If you got a red and white ..you can't beat that paint scheme --- keep it stock and go with the Yamaha ....

Looks like I will be keeping it original red, white & black with "YAMAHA".

Thanks everyone for your opinions...

I am in the process of redoing my fairing as well. It is getting the graphics put on this week. I am having it done as close to stock as possible. I think Yamaha got it right with the red/white scheme.
