1984 Skyway T/A

1984 Skyway T/A

This was one of my dream bikes back in '84. I saw it for the first time at a bike shop called City of Bicycles in Inglewood, California. I was always mesmerized by the tear drop shape of the tubes. After a lot of eBaying and a pretty penny, it has come to a completion.

Sorry my man. Like I said, this bike was one of my dream bikes, besides a looptail PK, back in the day. Not only did it take lots of time and money, but I got it close as I remembered (color-wise) it back in 1984 when I was 9 years old. I used to drool and gawk at the T/A on display through the front window of the bike shop I mentioned in my description. I remember that the T/A was around $500 then, probably $1,000 in today's money. But I'm not insinuating that I'd sell it for that amount anyways. Thanks for looking.

Re: 1984 Skyway T/A

very nice bike..those white ones always look sharp.  I had a chrome one in almost  perfect stock condition and sold it about 8-9 yrs ago.(for 75.00) also sold my original patterson racing  bike for 50.00 at about the same time.  Sold them to couple young  neighbor kids that kept hounding me to sell them a bike.  Hey at least I kept my looptale PK. and  my 84 GT.

Super dope ride there.  Hey, where did you get the f&f powdered or painted?  I'm in SoCal, so hopefully it's somewhere near.  Again, Sweet build!
