    they did'nt do 'em in dark green Loz .. If I recall correctly the A3's
    and A4's were red or blue .. the shat drive was available at the same
    time and that was in green or red. ... the later black/white/gold fuel
    injection was a pretty colour scheme ..

    You're dead right, they were available in Luminous Dark Red or Luminous
    Navy Blue. It was the Z1000 ST that was available in Luminous Green.
    Anyway, I liked that colour on that Z1000 shape, the ST and M2 had very
    similar stylng.

    Doesn't the 4L0 tell you? That's the Yamaha model designation for the
    first 350LC of 1980. Or did you mean pre/post-engine stabiliser bars on
    the 1980/81 model?

    I had a red MkII after my Z1-R .. always fancied one of those black with
    yellow/orange/red stripe Z1-R Turbo's that Kawasaki USA cobbled together
    (much to the distress of the factory!)
