Uh, no. 

It's an SPS that I *think* was used as an anchor for a deep-sea fishing vessel at one point.  It's probably the saddest Duc I think I've ever seen.

That's quite the mental image.

Maybe leave the barnacles and seaweed on it?

Go for a Bioshock type theme?

;D

Was this thing in a fire?

It's bad like that?

or bad like it's been stored in a pit and covered in earth?

The plaques on the numbered bikes are centered and much smaller..

I dont believe the SP/SPS's came in yellow... but i could be wrong
That's what I was thinking on both counts. I just haven't seen a real SP or SPS in several years. IIRC, very few 916 bikes came in yellow and none of them were SP or SPS bikes, but I am far from being any type of expert on the subject.

It could also have been painted or had the plastic swapped out for yellow.
