heres my canam work this one out

[Doc]

pre'78 I'd be inclined to go Russ otherwise you'd have to limit that lovely travel which in my eyes is a no no nice bike! Had a '74 TNT250 briefly many moons ago and it really did go like a cut snake..if flew! It didn't stop too well but is certainly didn't lack any ponies

Vintage Iron make perforated tank decals for the earlier model Can Ams . I know that some people have reservations about buying from them , but I haven't had any problems with them yet & so that is where I plan on buying my Can Am tank decals from .
