I got my hands on a 1983 SP100…

Yep, that’s right! Paid $450 for it, sadly though, it does not have the original engine, (seller said dr125 engine, but I’m gonna check the engine vin to be sure if it’s a dr125 motor, or the original). But I think It’ll be alright. Allegedly, they only sold 13 of them in the US. Will add pics soon

After some research, I've come to the conclusion that 13 were sold to the US, but many to Canada. So I'm sure lots of them have filtered down here to the US, but it's still a pretty rare bike. After some research, the engine either went to a Sp125 or a DR125, unless they swapped a 125 top end on a 100 crankcase for more power.

Anyone know where to get tank decals for this? Some of the left side got messed up when I was pulling the dent out…

Thats a tough one. I don't see any on the vintage decal sites. Good luck.

When I had this issue I cut them from vinyl (a sticker shop can probably do it) and they lasted about a year.

Did you need to make your own svg or something, or did they do it for you?

I'm sure they could do it for you, or if you know a bit about photoshop/illustrator it's pretty easy to make your own vector images to provide them.

I had some custom side panel graphics made by Decal Works years ago. Not sure if they are still doing it or not, but the worst they do is say no. I sent them an email and it took a couple days for a response. A couple more emails to confirm exactly what I was looking for and I had the side panel graphics within a week; they were high quality vinyl.
