My 1982 Gold Plated Ltd/Special Edition Kuwahara, Frame and Forks in survivor condition built up with a mixture of used and NOS parts. Check out dtlflykuwahara's one in the museum for info about these frame and forks

Post by: bodamus on October 01, 2007, 05:32 PM: I think he probably thought like me that he had the only one. That's the only 2 I have ever seen though.

The Bars are unbranded pro size V bars I bought from Alans ages ago.

Thanks from bodamus ;)
