I needed new mufflers for my 1990. I also wanted to give the Black Widow collector a try. The photo is of the initial fitting with nothing bolted on completely. Waiting on OEM mounting hardware. The quality and appearance of the Dominator cans is impressive.

I got the decals from Diablo Cycles online.

https://www.diablocycle.com/FJ1200-1989-Complete-Decal-Set.html

A bit of caution, The FJ for the main fairing is much larger than the factory decal.

I used the same decal set on my Satin Black 87 that I sold a few years ago.

That solo seat looks awesome Fred.  With the full lower fairing and flat black paint, the FJ had a new look.
