Repainting the YamaZong XT200GY-2

SpudRider · 10-17-2009, 01:22 PM

I have added a Clarke XT225 fuel tank to my YamaZong. I really enjoy the 3.5-gallon fuel capacity, and I also like the bikeâ€™s new appearance.

However, the color is not molded into some of the plastic on my Zong, and after 20,000 miles the color has faded. :( Therefore, I am going to order a Polisport Universal Motard Fender, and repaint the rest of my motorcycle.

I can choose any color I wish for the new fender, so I am considering new color schemes for my YamaZong. Therefore, I decided to create a poll. Which of the following color schemes do you like best?

Here is a retouched photo showing the bike repainted in the original KTM Orange.

As forum member Weldangrind stated in another thread, Yamaha Blue has a certain "poetic justice."

How do you like Honda Red?

Finally, I can dress the entire motorcycle in basic black.

Repainting my Zong will be a fun winter project. Please vote for the color you like best.
