I think they are from 1987

I just thought you guys would get a kick out of the prices things were back then. Smoothbores for $375.00? I guess its interesting to me because the bike ended up being mine.

Backing in 87 that bill was a fair bunch of change. I bought a new extra cab long bed Toyota pickup for about $8600.

What is more interesting is some things we actually just as expensive (like valve springs for $98) and electronics from Dyna were about 50% less. Of course if you consider the cost of living now is about 4-5 times what it was back then makes all todays prices now seem real cheap. The V&H header cost as much as I bought in Bike Bandit closeout last year.

HD clutch hub was $9 given the price today ($30) that is about right . These Suzuk's are pretty cheap I would say.

Calvin,
As I get better uploading pictures, I will put some up. The local dragstrip is open now, so hopefully a shot or 2 will get here soon...

Is that rear wheel horsepower? Or brake horsepower?
