Prob massively off with the Gyro2, but I think it's:

Original Gyro: 1986

Gyro2 + Gyro XL: 1997

I thought 87 but spose it could have been 86. Gyro 2 was earlier than 97 though I'm sure

No probs - just checked my Ride mag from February 1997, and in the new products there's the Gyro XL  :daumenhoch:

Although they re-did the 2, so maybe twas earlier - I'm not the man to ask, as the last Gyro I ran back then was in the early 90's....

The villain I'm working on at the moment is from 95 and had a gyro 2 standard.

rumour has it that apparently Brian Scura had a dollar for everyone sold, makes him a bit rich I'd say, this is before SST started doing them
