    I believe you are correct

    Ixol Phaane and the gentleman that created a GPS mount from up north (can't remember his name) have a Yellow F6b, these are the 2 that come to mind.

    As far as I know all 2013 F6B and GL1800 use the same front fenders. You could buy in 2013 a GL1800 in a Light Silver Metallic, Gray Metallic, Ultra Blue Metallic, Candy Red and the F6B in Black and last but not lest Red.
    Then since all F6B and GL1800 2013 till 2017 run the same front fender there are many more colors to chose from like White, Yellow, matte colors, shinny colors and so on. I'd find the matching color fender.... to heck with the year and put it on. Now if it is an off color from a custom paint job then a repaint may be in order.

    Painted

    As earlier stated, it has undoubtedly been painted. I had my 2016 painted Jupiter Metallic Orange. It was Matte Silver from the factory and the Manufacturer’s Statement of Origination listed Silver but the invoice indicated the new orange color. Since it was orange when first registered the registration reflects the color is orange. You just need to know what White was used for the re-paint.

    I thought Ixol told me his was a '13 during the Rally.
    Guess not.
    Those evenings under the tent at the last few rallies are starting to get hazy......

    It's possible that Ixol purchased his yellow F6B in late 2013 (Oct, Nov or Dec) when the 2014's were introduced to the market. just a guess.
    That high octane mountain water that I consumed under the tent had a tendency to impact my memory at times

    More than likely the case.....Smokey Mountain fog wasn't limited to the mountain tops.

    2016 is. Called Matte Pearl White. Honda didn't have that color in 2013. The red should still fit. Just have it painted and enjoy the bike! Because it's an awesome ride!!!

    When I bought my new 13 my options were red or black. I didn't like the red so I "settled" for black. I've had 1 black car and 1 black 97 Magna. I vowed I'd never have a black vehical again. Bought it the first week of Oct 13. Few weeks later the 14s were released. YELLOW and black. I was bummed. Loved that YELLOW. Fast forward 2 1/2 years and a totaled black 13. Yup, a 14 YELLOW found Its new home.
