The disc fixing bolt on the 1st link is stamped with the redline R on one side.  :daumenhoch:

Not all came like this but the stamped ones are more collectible .

The redline 400's also came with at least three different sort of stamped caps for the crank arms that I know off.
Sugino metal,
Sugino plastic chrome
Redline stamped metal

I don't know if there is any dating explanation for 400 cap or 401 fixing bolt stamping though, anybody?
