VIRTUALLY ALL OG 1982 KUWAHARA KYZ IN CHROME WITH ACS Z RIMS STILL A BIT DUSTY
« on: April 06, 2012, 01:24 PM »
Heres my 1982 Kuwahara KYZ in chrome survivor which is virtually all OG  8), just a bit dusty at the moment , as far as i can see its just the tyres and maybe seatpost which are not original to the bike, interestingly the KYZ was the first bike ever to be sold with ACS Z rims as stock on them

parts list
1982 Kuwahahara KYZ frame and forks in chrome
win v bars
sugino stem
ogk 77 black grips
dia compe tech 2 levers
dia compe 890 brakes dated 02/82
elina et seat
sugino crank with snowflake sugino chain ring
rainbow label comp 3's
ACS z rims with high flange suzue hubs
rat trap pedals



























heres the advert for the bike from bitd 1984 actually


the one in the advert is a bit later than my bike mines may82 i think, this ones virtually the same but without the z rims and this one doesn't have the sugino stem

I so wanted this. Just was not as flush with the right amount to win it. Lovely, very jealous Glenboy. Looks extremely tidy, look after her ;)
