gem (greentoad) has built up a register of all the serial/frame numbers of torker built haros......hes the top man

PM him the serial/frame number.

Heaps of potential there, good find that man

Would love to do a build of the one I rode bitd but would be too cost prohibitive; Gen 1, Profile Cranks, Alloy hubbed Skyways, MX1000's, Hutch 2n1, Tuff Neck Stem, Comp 2's the list goes on

Hi Jon

Very clean find.

Good chrome, the bridge has not been squashed, knurling looks great, and it looks like it has no cracks on the gusset.

So, what's the story?

It is not on the Registry, the year is September 1983 so any history about it would be great.

If anyone has pictures of Craig C on a Haro Freestyler, please post them - dirt skirt looks like it has been in a while.
