joelster Added a reply to Need Help With Getting Decals for a YZ 490
8/27/2026 6:29pm I'll be racing at Zoar Valley at the end of September. There's no jumps, it's an old school 70's track. I don't even know what the suspension on the bike feels like. It's likely modded as the rest of the bike has some work done to it.

Factory Ride in Idaho. Iv'e ordered backgrounds from him before, he was quick and good quality. I'm sure he can modify colors and fonts to whatever you like. 1986-1989 Yamaha YZ490 Custom Pre-Printed Red Background - White Numbers by Factory Ride

I use EVO MX for a lot of my builds, 86 YZ250, 88 Cagiva 250 WMX, 81 YZ465, etc. I used their gripper seat covers too. It looks stock but grips way better than normal vinal. I got 4 years of racing out of my Tecnosel seat cover on the 86 YZ, shame they can't sell them any more.

Check out FastlaneMX on Facebook. He does a ton of vintage bikes. I got backgrounds from him for my 79 and 80 cr250s. Great quality and quick turnaround

8/23/2026 3:18pm My 1987 CR 500 I just finished. Still needs a few tiny correct bits to be 100% but it runs/rides awesome!

8/22/2026 5:01am I looked at his stuff. He has a bunch of stock decals that are a full red background for the front plate and a red outline for the side panels. I'm looking for yellow decals just like what is on the bike, but obviously blank so I can add my number instead of 176.

8/21/2026 5:11pm I have a 1986 YZ 490. Headed to race in a month. I need a number plate and side panel set in yellow with black numbers. I can't find anything, except a few sets from Australia that have an Aussie flag across the top. I'm open to even getting a generic blank yellow set and cutting the contours myself, and...

8/10/2026 1:01pm It's almost always about the money $$$$$$$$. He's good on camera and knows his way around the bike. He can explain things extremely well. Watching an MXA test video hit 200,000+ views generates a lot of revenue and its passive revenue, not a 1 time check. The video is done and out there, and the checks keep coming in every...

8/9/2026 3:15pm It's alive! Started the day with the clutch not working, no rear brake, shifter bouncing around and ZERO spark. 4 hours later she's alive! It fired right up and settled into a nice idle. I turned the idle up 1/8th of a turn and barely breathed on the air screw. Such a nice feeling watching it settle into an idle.
