Hey guys!
Just picked up my first bike a few months ago and I’d really like to black it all out. Anyone know what years are compatible with my bike? I figure it’d be easier to find parts if it is compatible with models on the 00’s. Thanks!!!

 

I think its 86-90 on some engine parts and others like frame up to 86-03 as I think the frame was the same but the engine changes. I cant remember when it went from a case breather to a head breather with umbrella valves? The 4 speed is one issue of course.

I have a 1990 and its hard to swap some parts.

This probably did not help much. I use the Ronnies online part fiche to check parts.

 

Wow, that an '86. Looks great.
But, sorry no leads to answer your part compatibility question.
Congrats.

 

Remembering that '91 was a 5-speed...
so... about 1982 I believe till 1990 should all be the Same..Basically...certainly 1984 to 1990 BTDT...
and it is easier to put a 4-speed into a 5-speed frame than to put a 5-speed into a 4-speed frame... BTDT..

 

Not going to find a lot of custom parts with a 1990, especially blacked out. Start practicing with a spray can or find a local powder coating operation. Because I live on ocean, my 1991 has taken a beating. Believe me, your bike looks impeccable for it's age. On the ocean, rust never sleeps. Good luck making your new bike your own!

Could I take it to a customs shop and have it done you guys think?? Is that something that can be done??

 

Hell yeah! With enough money and time, anything is possible.
