Hi, after selling our 1979 XS special 2 yrs ago & totally regretting it as soon as it exited our driveway, we have now purchased ( this week ) a 1978 XS special in Black....now not so keen on the black as a colour. On the title of the bike it says its green, but aren't the Standards only green for the 78 year, & Midnight Blue & Vintage Burgundy the colours for the 78 special. So very confusing, or did someone change the colour somewhere within the bikes 40 plus years to green I wonder. Anyone else have a green 1978 special by any chance - also with the colours for that year was there any pinstripe / decals on the tank & side panels at all. We would like to get the bike back to the correct stock colour. Thanks for your help guys.
