Welcome to the forum. I am in NSW. Got a 1984 SR400, wire wheels and disc front. Double check parts as mine is a mix of 500 and 400 parts.

Hi Peter --Thanks for the welcome, I think it's a 1985 "Classic" also it has 18" wheels, may be a private import from Japan, no compliance plate, I had a SR500 about 20 years ago and this one is a lot different--Barry

Hi, sounds about right for a Japanese market 1985 model. You can look up the frame number here: sr500forum.boards.net/thread/2910/link-sr-frame-identification-chartand see what exact year/model it is (or started life as, if it's been modded,) but drums both ends were most common around that time so could be original from the factory. That's a real good front brake!! |
