Sweet.

Keep it. I really regret selling my old school Haro and have recently bought another.

Hide it for a year in the loft and when you get it out again you will very quickly know if you want to keep it, that will tell you everything.

Very nice.  :smitten:

Please be aware that to sell stuff on here you need to be a site supporter. Even threads like this that ask if you should sell it or not can be pulled as they are seen as a method of enticing people to pm you with offers.

A site supporter tag is only £10

As for the price I would say £400 is about right give or take £50 each way.  :daumenhoch:

Ok thanks for the comments guys, I will have to think long and hard about this one. Got about 80% of original parts to so might end up building her

Think you have answered your question above ........ if you have 80% of the original parts the least you can do is build it and then decide what you want to do with it   :daumenhoch:

Im with Dave on the price ...... a gen2 i think would be closer to £500 than £400 ...... I have heard of 84/85 FST's bringing over £300 and compared to this there is no comparison imo  .

Lovely frameset  :smitten:  ..... if i had the spare cash i would love it next to my two 84 gen 3 sports , but i ain't , so it ain't going to happen  ;D .

You've just made my mind up, yep I'm gonna build her. Just had a look at what I've got and with original bars, crank and white mike buff Zrims I'd be stupid not to!
