    Did the 185 Have suspension?

    What i was told was the 1980 185 had no suspension however the 185s had front suspension. I ask because my 1982 185s has no suspension in the front at all so i'm thinking its the wrong front end.

    Our 82' 185s doesn't have front suspension either, so I am pretty sure this is right. The later ones did have front suspension.

    83 and newer were the only ones with front suspension.

    I have a whole front end (triple clamps, forks & axle) for 23 bucks. Needs cleaning, paint and some work (fork seals & boots possibly) but for 23 bucks I think it's a fair deal.

    Interested at all? I can bring it up to Hazleton, if ya don't like what you see, don't take it. No need to pay me right on the spot either.


    Someone put them on this 110 frame so I have no idea the exact model it came off of.

    Now if you had a lower 200x tripple then we could really talk
