Defo m8 the first bike is an 86 Expert and the second is a 88 Expert. Cali and pro class are 82-84 and the rupe was late 85-86 some people on here would'nt class anything after 85 as old school so you probs best of looking for Expert, Cali, Pro Class, 82-85 but even the pro class won't be cheap if you can find one :daumenhoch:
