1983 Diamondback Silver Streak

This is my daily rider.

Dude, I love this bike!! I bought off a friend and fellow Museum member a couple of weeks back and am in the process of building it to look just like the 80's ad. Thanks blkout619! It's an '83 because the serial # is 3D1713 baseball symbol according to OS-DB.NET. SWEEET!! Even the forks have a serial #! This bike turns heads when I ride it down my block! It's like my neighbors have never seen a bike like it before!
