Hello all, Bob here, I Just join the list... unfortunately I will be
doing more asking then suggesting....I just picked up a real rough 72
eldorado 850...I never had a moto before....Trying to pick up the
ternminology so I don't come across as the real novice that I am...

Is a 72 eldorado a loopframe???
Is it considered an 850t when I look for parts? (i'm pretty sure not but
want to make sure)
How do you determine if it's a police or not?
What is the difference and can any 72 eldo be made a police?

The bike runs pretty good but looks bad..alot of original parts missing
and modified...my intentions are to try and restore it back to somewhat
original condition and I have seen some really sharp dressed out police
models I would like to attempt to mimic if possible...

Any info-suggestions-warnings- or education you would like to lend would
be GREATLY appreciated...

thanks,
