Bianchi Road Bike KS314889
Bianchi Road Bike with Stamp at bottom of frame engraved is KS314889. The bike was semi stripped and sanded down so no label of the model. Bianchi logo on main frame and 'B' engraed on top of forks. Can anyone please help me identify the make of the bike. Model year I assume is 1989? Thank you Ash

The last time I saw a KS##### serial number was on my Kawamura-built 1971 Nishiki.

Points to a Japan-built frame, possibly a Limited if the frame isn't too heavy for 022 tubing.
You'll need to put up photos.
Only the first few digits of the S/N are likely to be indicative of the vintage.

Tom saw my post (I never know if these notification things are going to work) and said it's a November 1983 frame, almost certainly for the 1984 model year.
Pictures are always welcome.
