What are pro's and con's between 85 200X and 87 200x? I own a 85. I like it alot. But I have a chance to buy a 87 that needs attention.
My concern is: Will it be a great deal of a difference? Wil I enjoy the 87 more? The 85 is the only year I have ever owned.
Does it have more power? It has 7 more cc's. It has 6 gears.

This may be in the wrong area????

the '87 will have alot (relatively speaking) more power and that extra gear is always nice if you ride where there's room to use it. However, parts availability is limited.

87's have a lot better looks than the 85. They are kind of rare so you should buy it. Parts are pretty rare as stated, even though there has been a couple of part outs on ebay lately.
