ADVR R80G/S registry.... who's got one?

SOLO LOBO · 09-22-2008, 10:23 AM

I noticed that over in thumpers there is an ongoing thread about first year KTM 620 Adventures... keeping track of who has one of the "first year" bikes ...

So, obviously we need the same thing here for R80G/S's
Here's a link to the micapeak R80G/S registry...LINK

Or am I to believe there are too many?

Total R80G/S production run (world-wide) 21,864 between 1980-1987

That's too many for me to keep track of!

Total US production for 1981 of the R80G/S was 747

phactory · 09-22-2008, 11:04 AM

SOLO LOBO,

Thanks! That was just when I was finishing up the resto! It did a couple of shows, and has gone through a couple of incarnations and now is a Rider! This is how it looks today!

Rob Farmer · 09-22-2008, 11:40 PM

I bet theres not many more than this on the entire site. Out of 8.5 thousand members on UKGSer there's only around 15 Mono's. Why not have a thread for all the mono owners to post?
