LOL..... I actually did the deed. Ordered the tank in yellow and 2 side panels in yellow, along with all the decals and emblems.
Cost just under 1k.
So, thanks to all the comments, ya'll saved me from total humiliation by hinting it is either all yellow or all red, but no red and yellow.

Thanks!

Her vision is perfect, that looks absolutely hideous. If that was mine, I'd at least rattle can it with something . Even spray-on bedliner would help.

Dang Texasten, I'm barely 200 miles from you (Shreveport) I would have painted what you have for a lot less than 1K.

As long as you didn't choose school bus yellow.....

Yes, I know. I learned a lesson to listen to the wife!!!
Can't wait to pay for my error by posting pics of the bike with all the new yellow parts on, looking great!
The tank was on back order, so it may be a few weeks or a month to get all of it.....
Meantime, the "abuse" continues..... But, I DID ask for it..... :D

Ok, Thanks for all of ya'lls help. The new yellow parts, including the tank, arrived today.
Came in much earlier than expected.
Now to tackle swapping it all out, then I will have a Yellow S10 ES. Yes, 2015, not 2016 ::025:: ::025::
Not entirely looking forward to the fuel pump swap and the filler cap, etc.
Will be the first time to do such a task. The dealer wanted 200$ to do the swap.......

So thanks again for advising against only swapping the side panels...... ::013::

Knock on wood, but if anything were to happen to my bike, I'm pretty sure the Yamaha Anniversary Yellow tank and side panels would be what I buy.
