I need a little old school R education. What are the differences between and 81 and 82 R. Are 81s only more sought after because they are the first year or are there actual differences?

81 had rear drum brakes, a different airbox that got the air from under the seat so the rear fenders have an extra hole, the off/run switch was on the thumb throttle and the headlight switch is 81 only, the front disc is non vented, the tripples are slightly different, the 81 had 3 bolt hubs and thats about all I can think of off the top of my head. Here's a picture of my 81 with a 300 kit.

Yeah, didn't look at his feedback cause I wans't planning on bidding, but I'd probably steer clear of that bozo.

Seller doesn't take paypal. I wouldn't send a check to CA and take a gamble. Looks pretty nice though,
