[QUOTE="Adam-NLV, post: 111149, member: 3868"] IMHO I think your both right although I'd give more of a percent to racer's explanation in that basically 'times change'... but HG has some dang valid points. This (my) 1979 purchase has enlightened me to the changes that makes me agree with HG's explanation too. For the Bright Yellow 1979 model it was the first bike to incorporate: 1) The end of the folding iconic handle bars. 2) The beginning of the painting fenders (they weren't plastic yet). 3) The elimination of the Helmet Holder. 4) The end of the chrome engine guard/ skid plate. 5) Lots more black paint than chrome... Those are the 5 examples I can think of right off hand, there may be more. [/QUOTE]
