Hi All
As mentioned in a couple of threads now (sorry to bore you all) but I have just purchased a Le mans MK V. It is a 1993 model.
It has quite a few chips on lower forks as well as on the the wheels & side covers so paint job will be underway over the next few months but aside from that it appears in good condition.
I was wondering if anyone could help me with identifying what an original Mk V of that year looked like ie mirrors, blinkers, etc etc. I have surfed the web & found images of Mk V's up to 1989 which show differnces to mine such as my bike has fully painted wheels where all the bikes I saw had wheels with painted centres & polished rims.
Once again thanks for your help.

Mick Walker has a restoration guide that lists the available colours for each model. You can usually find them on ebay or Amazon.

Hi,

By 1993 they were selling off the last of the 1000 Le Mans models and so they released a "limited edition" of the final 200 made, the one I saw was painted red, with all red wheels fork lowers main and side stand as well as frame. I suspect it may be one of these, is there a metal badge on the cover for the top triple clamp with a no./200 on it? If there is it will definitely be one of the last 200 made. Apart from the paint job i don't think there was anything different from the usual MkV's.

Cheers,

Guzzilemansv
