Can anyone corroborate if it's true that sometime between 1985 and 1990 the 1000s had dynamo wires?
Thanks!!
I was making that 1990 guess based on a
T-Mar post from a long time ago that I might've misread.
I went back and flipped through the catalogs. There's a chance that the 1986 was the only year that received the internal wiring harness. You can just barely see the grommet for it in this picture from the 1986 catalog. I couldn't spot it in any other years
You can see the same grommet bump, and hanging wire while I fix the light, on this 1989 Koga Miyata Randonneur Extra, which I will some day take better photos of.
