very cool looking frame and fork always fun when you see something new. thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the great comments guys. I have to admit though, I was slightly disappointed when I pulled it out of the box and felt it's weight. It's not chromoly, but extremely clean. I'm just going to have to build it with very LIGHT parts. (serial# 20702513)

Thanks for that interesting connection... they are near identical to the 1st Gen Thruster rr dropouts.

Thanks vonmark01. I really appreciate the comments.

I've accumulated gold ano parts for it... no I just need to find time to build and photograph it. As you know, the 83 Nora is occupying much of my time at the moment.

take care

Sounds like you got a good one. I'll be looking for it when you get it up on the museum. I still haven't found much more info on the bikes.  And I sure haven't seen a lot of them around. Mine isn't chromo, so I can imagine they were more low-end of their day. Although yours does change that theory a bit. I'm pretty sure the KHS company originated here in Southern California, but I haven't done any digging for info in a couple years. Good luck with your build... do it justice.

its a survivor and i hope to pick it up the weekend!!
will be in california on holidays with the wife in july cant wait, looks look a kool place!!

thanks for the info and great collection you got tere!!

cheers

My bike is at my brother's but was able to get the serial# from him.

The number is either:  20702513 or 2c702513. He said it was hard to tell.

I'm almost 100% positive mine is an '82 from seeing them at the race track that year, same decals.

Yours might be an '81. If it resembles mine it might be. Are the decals/gusset the same?

hi socalwop

well i got that khs duster 300 yesterday and i love it, a real american beauty!! i put it up on bmxmuseam today, so it should be a day or two befour you see it! i took it apart and washed it down and she came out minty! i couldnt wait to get it up so in a mad rush i only put up the f+fs but i will have the whole duster up and 100% complete in original state in the next few days
