I am about to order a decal set for my '76 CR250 from Reproduction Decals in Canada and I am wondering if anyone can assist with telling me which decals are correct for the M2 model fuel tank and if possible which is the correct placement on the tank.
The decal kit carries 3 warning decals, my original microfiche only details 2 warning decals on the tank so I'm not sure which ones are correct. Maybe 1 was for the rear fender?
I will be clear coating over the decals so once they are on, they are there for good.

On the 73/74 parts bike I have, two go on the tank and one on the rear fender. There is a "Important Notice" sticker on the tank just under the cap. then just under it is a "sold as is warranty" sticker. The one i have on the rear fender is just a New Feature sticker. Boasting the new long travel suspension. Dont know if that will help?

Thanks for that, my decals have arrived so its only a matter of finding some spare time now to apply them and clear coat the tank.
I've done some web research but can't find even a photo of a '76 model tank from any angle that shows the decal placement, save for 1/2 a tank visible on an MT/MR model in my Hayes manual.

No-one has any old magazine/test articles they can see the decal placement on?
