Haro sport frame and forks prices....advice please

[Cleedubber]

Hi guys
I've just been to look at a '85 Haro sport f&f set
Pretty good around, ie no damage, just lots of storage scratches etc, so needs a powder and decal job,
Just wondering if you guys can give me a ball park figure of what to be paying for these

Thanks

If you can get some pics of it mate it would be good

[deeman]

stick some pics up dude!use photobucket then copy the image code and copy them onto here!even i managed it and i'm a fookwit with computers!plenty of people will give you an idea of what it's really worth!

[Cleedubber]

Thanks guys
Well its a good job I have as you in the know will realise its an '84  !!

Its been powder coated but has a few smal chips and scratches so would prob do again before building

many thanks for your input  

Have also been offered an '85, is there much difference in these, build and desirability wise ?
Main dif seems to be location of the coaster brake

Also the 85 has standing platforms build in to the rear drop-outs & peg bosses on the forks

That's a Gen 3 Thai made 84 Sport, or could be an 84/5 FST, so do check

Yes, just noticed the L drop outs on '85, where they Thai made too.....known as the "overseas" haro

Yes all of the Haro's from the 3rd gen 84s were known as Overseas or Thai made, before this they were made by Torker 

[Cleedubber]

Thanks

So any ideas on ball park prices.... ?

[boofy44]

thought they were tai made not thai?

[Cleedubber]

OK, guess its as much as I'm prepared to pay.............

It is very hard to price things really, but Sports seem to go for a bit less than Masters, the best way is to check on ebay & for sale sections on forums

lol....i thought that was a real cat squashed behind the frame on the first pic

Nice frameset 

Have you worked out if it's an 84 sport or an FST yet Think im right in saying the top tube length is the biggest giveaway , sports are 19 1/2 and FST's are 18 1/2 

Either way it will make a great project

Thanks guys, I think he's after too much for it really
I had a look about nd they're def much less desirable that the master, and also the Torker made ones

Back on the lookout.... Got my eye on a complete one so we'll see what happens with that
Thanks for the input chaps.

If its a rider then the sport rides nicer than the master 

[FAZE3]

If its a rider...then the overseas later type (which that was) is a better bet. Like most american made stuff they were a bit flimsy the GEN 1 & 2 Masters/ sports.

The sports has a bigger top tube so gives a bit more space for the ol belly these days

[mark 2]

Looking at the length of the top tube I'll have a punt at it being an FST

I thought the same Mark looking at the picture quick, but it's a Sport if it has machined headtube and BB.
