That's gonna look tight when it's done. I like the mags and tires.

Yeah, my senior pro is quiet, smooth, and quick. They have a nice design and feel to them. I like how they angled the seat to lay back naturally. Way more comfortable than my goose. Good luck on the sell!

Shiva...I agree wit ya, but I've gotta free up some space for some future builds. The DG is next up...but I've got a 78-80 Powerlite I'm going to start on as soon as it gets here too! You know...I researched the tires, and it turnes out that Tioga is using the original Mitsuboshi molds that were used for the original Comp III's. They actually have the Mitsuboshi name on them when you look at them and do say CompIII on the side walls as well. I'd still like to get a hold of a set of CompII's though...

I have a DB with the Gold DBII decal on it. But I also have an 81 DB with Silver Streak on it as well. Same frame exactly exept the decals and year.

yeah  and ill tell ya  you probly wont find those gold black ones   i couldent    that guy i talked about said the blue and gold were only used by factory riders  And the black that we both have only lasted one year   supposedly the first year of the DBII which is what i asume these are . Also  my frame has the original rear brake which is also gold    I would love to see what this looked like new

Have to agree with 79Supergoose after some research if it has the Black/Gold Decals it is a very rare early SilverStreak before they were actually promoted as a Silver Streak, they were just known as Diamondback II.  they go for top dollar in the UK.
What's the Serial no. on it and I can research it a bit more if you want

mine is  1L0204
  but  mine may be rare but my gussets are a disaster    even though i was told when i bought this frame  NO DING NO PING NO PANGS usuall  BS  ...gussets are dented severly with pings to boot   and after really stickin my eye to it there  slitely startin to crack at the corner of the diamond <>-  like so.... real small  but there   so really wont ride it much.

BUT the frame did have the complete cranks  with diamond cutouts in the   pedals  also with DIAMOND BACK stamped in them but half wore off . Also the original gold rear  brake matching the decal

i have stuck as many DB parts that i could get my hands on anyway

DB Seat  newer but sleek lookin with a snake skin patten in it
DBSeat clamp stamped db and diamond back
DB bars stamped Diamond back chromoly
db stem the one that kinda looks like a snakes head
db forks come to find there newer style with smaller diamond cutout  but i like em put repo decals on em anyway
db grips  say DBDBDBDB   all over em
Oh and have what i think is original chain  but thats gonna need a lot more work before it can go on

As for my S#  to me it looks like #204  just over the first batch of 200  but i really dont know that just  a guess

click the orange writing   .....79supergoose'sbikes its in there   ......if you see that  im not sure.........started this project with  this  and turned it it too this   despite the damage .plus sold the gt forks and redline stem  and got some money back .Also have changed some stuff since i took these pics  the seat  and clamp added the fork decals

i just listed a diamond back team pro with the blue and the gold decals on ebay its 9:34 april 1st so it may not show up for a bit but check it out if anyone is interested

All right, so I still have this one and she's near complete. I'll post some new pics soon. Hope you guys like how she turned out. Planning to ride this one by Summer.
