Is that a later frame?

My '80 KDX400 has dual rear shocks. ??

Interesting that the bigger bikes stayed with the dual shocks, and the little bike got the monoshock.

No matter - I love them all. :supz:

Sorry to stray off topic, but does your 1980 KDX400 have a VIN? If so, what is the first digit? Thank you.

Yes - apologies for the hijack.

First digit of my VIN is D. DX400, etc. Thank YOU.

OK. That lets me know. It is not actually a VIN. Maybe they got started in 1981 with the VINs.
