    Took this pic from the 1981 section of the gallery. It's hard to tell, but it looks like 650L to me.
    Current Bikes:
    2001 Yamaha FZ1 (bought same one back)

        Hi,

        I don't know. That "L" on the side cover is a fancy cursive script with a big curly-q that looks like it could be a lower case "g" but I don't think it was meant that way. It looks like just a fancy "L" to me. But it doesn't hurt anything to think "gL" when you see it.


        Thank you for your indulgence,

        BassCliff

          Hey, Cliff!! Not to upstage the Master of all good things GS, but either the designers were having a game with the logo OR they had spent too much time in a sushi bar with a round or two, too much Saki...

            I say leave them off, that way someone will have to prove it if they actually think its an "L"

                    I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.

                        I think I got the 650L part of the cover in the tool box somewhere. I took the badges off my tank and sidecovers when I got the bike.

                        If you have the covers and just need the badges let me know.

                          Sure, it means I get a lot more Ladies that want to ride with me.

                            Skateguy, how much are you looking to get for the badges?
