I pinched this image from a Vintage Iron web-page called "Honda Heaven". The caption says that it is an '81 RC500 . Except for the alloy tank & the coke-bottle shaped swingarm , it doesn't look that much different from the '82 CR480 RC .

Do you have a pic of the tank and arm? I'd like to see what they look like.
