« on: October 18, 2013, 01:31:47 PM »
Hi guys I am Jason I recently purchased what we belive is a 60 model sportsman. Has all the normal sportsman parts but hase crash bars and wide crome fenders. Been around these little bikes all my life dad has an early manual clutch and later automatic. We belive som parts swaping may have been done over the years so solid years get a little fuzzy. We live in McCune Kansas about 450 people right in the corner ov southeast kansas. Wanted to say hello and start looking for some advice thaks guys

Welcome Jason!  Post some pictures of the sportsman!  If you can, post the engine and frame numbers and we will add it to the registry.

Jason, They made both versions at the end (with & without crash bars).  My guess is they either took special orders, or they were trying to use up all the remaining parts before they stopped production. 

Your bike is certainly one of the newest on the list.  I wonder if we need to enhance the "Sportsman" section since we are getting so many of them on the list now.

BTW...Rick.....I lost the numbers from your Sportsman....please send them to me again.  I'm working on publishing another update to the registry (I promise!).
