Found that one closest to my idea but it's more of a custom factory decal it's not a 1986 original decals

That's what I started with ..I just now got it stripped down and frame will be painted tomorrow that's where I'm at so far I will post up dates and show my progress I was gonna add I've never seen anything like this on a fourstroke or not even like what I'm doing completely

The Motowhips CR250 looks good, but the paint will wear off the powder coated frame, not good if it's going to be ridden!

It may work, if you don't grip the bike!

After I change the year tag Honda decal I figured it would be 100,,%original  the tag means everything it's the most true legit scripture any man that's ever been around a Honda has ever translated after all

I’m going  to disagree with you on that one. 
It’s just a sticker not, a certification of authenticity. 
 

In regards to paint if, this isn’t a troll thread, powder coat the frame. You can always get frame guards and/or, grip tape to protect the paint.
