yeh mine's the unstamped one, from what I can find out from diff websites the mxII unstamped were us made five number serials were 79s six serials starting with 3 were 1980 and higher 81 so mine should be a 1980 (349990), looks good mines going to be slightly different, when I got my first bmx at the age of 13 was a bog standard magnum with cotterpin cranks, and one of my mates who's dad was well off had an MXII so this is going to be pretty much what I wanted at that time  :coolsmiley: but I moved onto PK Rippers after that and pretty much every make you could think of in the next 9 years  :idiot2:

I've got a yellow one of these with the same decals as you Chuddy - I think they're more in keeping with the age of the bike.

Beautiful old school bikes  :daumenhoch:

I'll get a pic of mine in the thread or to you tomorrow (or later today).
