no, the logos were on the fairing, this is damage of some sort, kind of like bondo type texture, looks like it may have been laid down, more than once, and possibly the fairing pushed into the tank

Welcome, nice bike and good to have a spare too. The very best thing you can do first is to get a hold of a Factory Service Manual on your bike, totally invaluable!!! The torn Carburetor boot is dead. Getting these bikes to run sweetly involves a few things and that is a biggie. As others have said, please post pics, everyone loves them

Someone else said they think what I'm looking at there is not a crack but is the molding

Thanks, was hoping someone could correct me, I wasn't sure what to call it, oxidation was all I could think of to explain it
