I have owned a couple of these and they always are borderline needing repainted. I think I will live with this one.

P.S. If anyone needs the paint code let me know!

I bought this one a while back finally got to take it out of the box to get a few pics and start making plans. It is greasy, and dirty but looks decent. I did change the chain guard out already. I like this type better so I matched the factory yellow and sprayed it to match the bike, it came out pretty close.

The Rails came in many colors, Gold, Green, Purple, Yellow, Blue, ect.. The 16 x 20 Slingshot came in Yellow, Lemon/Lime fade, Rally Bronze, and more!
The yellow one has grown on me, and I have ZERO yellow bikes other than this one. lol ![]() |

Usually pictures will show a bad match better than the human eye. The guard was just stuck on the bike without even polishing it out to get a good shine back, Just lightly wiped off the dust. It is called Yellow Devil, so I am now calling the bike that too! I am thinking about adding a small decal that says that too. ![]() |

When I was stripping my bike it had white under the yellow.So I did the same as you just sprayed white DP.That got it real close.Glad it worked for you. |

I had a 24" Super Stock the same color so I took the guard down for the scan it was a lot flatter so the machine could get it on there right. I was planning to repaint it also, but posted it for sale.

Yeah the guard really hurt the bike, plus it was all grimie looking. I could still use a better rear tire but for now this will work.

Looks great Ron. I'm not a fan of painted fenders, but it doesn't bother me at all on these Slingshots for some reason.

I feel the same way, and for some reason chrome fenders seem out of place on the yellow ones.
