Very nice. Decals are in the wrong place, but that's ok I guess.

What's the serial number. I think it's actually a 1995 which is when I think curved stays were introduced.

Re:

Oddly, mkoz, that's how the decals came from the factory - original owner never replaced them.

Must have been the new decal guy's first day....

Serial is A 2073

I see curved stays in the 93 and 94 catalogs...and the 95's wouldn't have been equipped with a Manitou 3...

yup, a lot earlier than 95

I never noticed that until you pointed it out, now I just can't move on...I'd have to reposition them

Re:

I'd rather keep the original decals than have re-pops in the "right" position.

They're where Yeti put them - that means they're right, imo.

Decals say 94, curved stays say 95.

I'll add the S/N to by database. Looks like they went to curved stays somewhere around A1900. I've had a couple in the 1800s and 1900s and the earlier ones had straight stays while the later ones had curved. Decals also vary around that time. Some had the EASTON YETI ARC from 94 and earlier while some had the YETI only decals from 94. I guess it was a messy transition.
