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?  |

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..
<snip>
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.
