what colour wheels did 79 or 390 hav

trying to find bit of info on parts for my 79 390 or found a right up and pic show gold wheels and gold bars but i was led to believe it had silver wheels any one got a stock 79

mm

in that pic it shows resevoires on rear shocks,the 79 had curnutt shocks is this pic a 80 allso has different number board.some bikes seem to hav gold bars and some black ? bit confused on different specs heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelp

I presently have a 79 WR and it has gold wheels, a darker gold than the ones on my 83 WR. The color changed when then hubs got upgraded in 81.
my present (and past) 79's had gold bars. I recently bought straight 78 handlebars and they are black, the bend matches the 79 bars exactly. If you have a low serial number 1979 it may have come with black bars. I notice this is magazine tests when the bike was new. I was told that as a low volume bike builder, husqvarna used what was on the shelf until it was gone (makes sense)
I like the black bars I have because they are oringinal. OR's came with both types (longer) shocks

Hope this helps

the 1979 250 and 390 OR came with silver rims, and black handle bars, Ohlins rear remote res, rear shocks.

77 and 78 they came with Curnutts..{pos} have yet to find a set that wernt blown, or were rebuildable.
after 1980 all models came with gold rims, and gold bars.
the black and gold, and red and gold was such a seller for Husky they just went with it, and sold motorcycles.

maybe

think these rims where originally silver,and hav set of black bars so just going to go with it,not building a show bike but would like to keep it to some kind of originall spec cheers
