Title: was is das?
Post by: mainline on March 14, 2011, 07:47:47 pm

The uncle with the death wish has just picked this up and isn't quite sure of the year. Frame and engine no's are 85, but he's thinking that they had USD forks. Anyone know this model?

84 had USD forks White Power wouldn't make forks to accept disk brakes so they went back to conventional for 85.
They were much tamer than the earlier models
