The glass is not half full, it was engineered with a 2X safety factor.

'86 Ambulance - Bent frame, cracked case, due for an overhaul
'89 Stormy Blue - Suits my Dark Side

I am thinking it is not a stick paint scheme, I figured it was a 86/87  was that an option or custom

Pat Conlon

Yep it's a '86/87....Yep, it's a stock color

I remember seeing that color combo. on the '84 bike **I think** sold in the Asian market.

I believe the 1200 pictured is a 1986 model. The paint scheme was an option in Europe, Australia and the UK. There is a paint scheme thread in the Files section. If that does not help, I suggest going to your local Yamaha dealership and ask if they would be able to check the color codes. For Starters, I will say the white is probably the Silky white that is used on the '85-'91 models that have white in the scheme.
