The white side covers look US, an original resto would be rare.

I rode one of the first rmx's in 89, I was at wayne leonards shop in cairns and it had just arrived and they were taking it out to the Mareeba mx track so I tagged along and had a few laps. remember thinking it was the enduro "goods" at the time.
