  • '79, '81 parts compatibility question

    I have access to an '81 parts bike, I'm wondering just how well this will work with a '79

    Any info appreciated.


    Thanx

        Thank you, exactly what I'm looking for. (wasn't expecting someone to list every item, just assumed the info was already compiled somewhere)

            One of these days I need to finish that... (forks, brakes, etc... )

            If your '79 is a Special, most mechanical items will interchange... if you have a standard, less so....

              It's a standard,

              IMO, looks way better than the special, but maybe I'm biast due to thinking the special looks like my Honda shadow.
