well the tuffs certainly aren't late 80's with alloy hubs, they brought out the plastic hubs in 1985....are you sure its not modern sealed tuffs with "kool kaps" or the anniversary ones?

and they are cw or copy type bars, not se....

and is it a reproduction kashimax?? and is it the modern version of the headset or a genuine 300/303/320??

all this can make a big difference to the value.

Hi Workshyfop

All these things I'm not sure of that is why I'm asking for advice/help from more experienced people with much more trained eyes than me. I had my bikes over 30 years ago and although I think my memories of that time are still sharp it was along time ago. The bars are CW my mistake, the headset is again said to be the genuine article. Seat post I dont know but it looks like a CW to me.

Cheers

Peter

Are the forks stamped?
Might give a clue
