- April 15, 2019, 03:25:56 AMWelcome to the forum - nice looking machine.....you definitely will find the forum helpful. Looks like you got a nice straight bike.
hmmm....red, 1999 800 from Canada.....looks just like someone's we all knew and loved. Nice to have another one back in the group.
What goes around, comes around....the Ratman is still watching us....and that's a good thing.

- April 12, 2019, 09:11:22 AMYes, this is a Canadian Bike so It makes sense that it was available in 99.
I do like the current stock colour, but I am going to make this bike my own and will do the two tone thing....I like the look a little better than the single tone.
Cheers

But all 99 and 2000's were 'black' (except for tanks and fenders). Later models featured a lot of chrome instead of the black bits.

)
Sure it is! The black version was produced in 1999 and 2000 only...

- April 09, 2019, 11:51:05 AMI am excited to be the new owner of a low mileage, 99 drifter 800. I take possession of it this weekend so I'm excited to get it home to my garage.
I'm sure I'll have lots of questions for the group at a later date.
Cheers,
Tush
