There should be a bumper on that frame brace. You can still find plastics for it but they will be aftermarket. I bought the list two sets that i was told of N.O.S plastics it costed me 1800.00 bucks fir both.
I’ll probably end up just Mickey mousing something for the plastics. I’m more concerned with engine and reliability. Have you ever done motor work to yours?
Didn’t do anything to the unrestored one it’s an original low hour survivor. But I have another 85 that’s completely torn down and being restored. Sent crankshaft to mr crankshaft. Cylinder to power seal. Just waiting for vapor/sand blast and powder. Then reassemble with new seals bearings bolts cables brakes rebuilt rear shock rebuilt front works shocks - new exhaust - chain sprockets tie rods ball joints etc - about 7k in the build with a new old parts

Nice I got an 85 2nd one and they dope when not backed up
Fun little machines
Great find bud. Great shape. I've had both of mine since 1992. Hit me up if you decide to sell it.
Just sold or recently. On to new projects
I have an unrestored 85. Any Q’s lmk. The plastic cap that goes on rear fender supports is a thin POS I can show you.

That exhaust is not original and the motor should be blue like the frame. I have two of these on a shelf on my warehouse
No blue motor on a 85 or 86. Newer ones do
