oops I got mixed up with the 83 and 84 I was talking about the 84 instead ??? I had a blonde moment :o
forget all I said about the models ;D

You have blonde ass hair ;D ;D ;D ;D
-
Mick D, does the 84 have 7, and the 82, or does the 83 standalone,
BTW I didnt think mine was special, I am more happy that i can count to seven accurately without forgetting where i was up to

Obviously the 82 model has had an extra year out on the track

Howzat Geoff! Amazing what you find when you cut the grass ;D

I have a 83, which shares very few parts with the 82 or 84 models.
Some of the differences that I learned when we restored my 83 include:
1. The 82 clutch cover is ever so slightly different (but you can mode the pipe to make it all fit). On this point, the 81 cr clutch cover which is alloy can be adapted to fit the 83 with a bit of work. I did this on my one so I never have to worry about clutch rot!
2. Engine gears are mostly unique for the 83
3. Tank, plastics are different
4. Shock Is different
5. Head and barrel are slightly different
6. Pipe and muffler are different
I would guess that the frame is slightly different. I was lucky to find a good 83 frame and replaced the one I had.
All in all there are more differences than you would imagine. The 83 was really a one off, which was a pain because parts were very hard to find!
Not great when the gear box was fxxked and only one gear was usable!
P.s my cr is the one that gmc posted. I have tarted her up a bit since then with some nos plastic, ohlins shock, etc... It is a bloody good bike!
