Never seen one with a white back end, and I'm not sure I like it  :-\

It should have grip tape on the back aswell

I just had a quick look and didn't even see the white back end. I presumed it was cardboard

I have not seen a blue one with a white back end

If the black/white paint scheme is original, the stickers should be blue font on white background

Yet  be another ebay sale by 9605deans trying palm a refurb job off as NOS. Most people on here would not touch anything this guys sells with a barge pole but for those of you who have never come across this tw@t before, please beware. 9605deans specialises in re-chroming or powder coating old frame & fork sets & then punts them on ebay as NOS items. He aslo has a fetish for polishing old cranks, stems & seat post clamps etc to death & again punts them around ebay as NOS even though the parts were never available in that highly polished condition BITD. As already mentioned, he has no idea what NOS means & to top it all off, all of his ebay auctions are 'private listings' because he is a shill bidding cnut - avoid at all costs.  :Aresehole:

Just check out his buyers feedback,he bought a big roll of cardboard recently.....

Tape should say Haro


The NOS Haro frames I've had in my possession had Anlun tape holding the cardboard in place.

Got to say that white back end on the FST is laughable.   :wtf:

Did fst frames ever have l shaped dropouts? I am sure they just had straight ones, so surely it is not even an fst????

You are wrong there  :-\

In 1987 the FST had the L shaped dropouts and the fork holes the same as the 1986 Master and sport.  The way to tell and 87 FST if the wrap around the front headtube.  There were a few 87 FST's that were actually 1986 Sports and they are easy to spot because they do not have the wrap around head tube.  The serial numbers are a dead give away aswell :daumenhoch:

The tape does say haro. Mine came with exactly the same, in fact it's still in the garage somewhere and as a special offer to radsters who want to make theyre frames look nos, I'm willing to let it go for only £1000 :LolLolLolLol:
