Hey let's not get hypersensitive. I'm glad you take care of what you own.
I my opinion however, if I'm proud enough to own, operate and care for a YM1500, then that's what it is. I would never dress it to appear to be sumpin else. Why not spiffy it up just like what it is?
Reminds me of all the lost teenagers who spend thousands of who know's whose dollars on their 4 cyl. 100 hp 1999 honda civics with muffler noisers, black light frame lights, roll cages, ground effect panels, illuminated window washer nozzles, lowering springs, racing seats - but the car still does 0-60 in 11 seconds.
That Yanmar feels shamed!
Great paint job though!
