Earlier I think.

Over the years I have had 83 and 84 laserlites, a loopy nova and a survivor all with original laser bars and all were stamped.
The first bike I had without was an 86' bravo although I have a feeling the mk2 nova's may have had them
That's as sure as I can be from the top of my head. As with everything back then anomalies were not uncommon so could have been batches of the above with unstamped bars.

I thought Nitto made all the bars and posts for Kuwahara from 1982 onwards including Laser bars and posts but they weren't stamped with the Kuwahara branding until 1983.

Me too.
