If so then it could be a 1992 as they were officially sold here between 1989 and 1993.

I ran my '89 Harley Sportster in the late 90s with a '78 'S' reg plate and no visible HD badges. It used to confuse the hell out of people!

Interesting... the only other thing I can think of in the same vein is the CH250 Spacy, but that only arrived in 1984 IIRC.dread wrote:sure the fella said it was tax free historic.

Can't think of any likely candidates from the seventies though
