That's the only pic i've seen with DMC on 3 pc cranks. Most pics I have he's riding 1 pieces. The bike looks stock other than wheels, straight post, gyro, and cranks/sprocket. He was all over the magazines in 86 so good photos are plentiful.

Does that look like a Group 1 Stem  :-\

I know its not a great shot of it, but the edges look a little to sharp for a Group 1

both pics look like they have 85 forks and pegs in 86 colours

No they are 86 Forks, as they are half Chrome, but they are 85 Pegs/Standers on the first one  :)

in the '86 haro catalog the pegs are high like the '85 models but I've got a 86 sport with them in the lower position and in fact Wilkerson's blue sport in the front of the same  catalog has them lower... go figure.. i guess they just used surplus '85 F&F's in 86 untill they ran out
