Looks like a 1985 model A2 for my line of thinking, without checking manufacture date from the VIN.
Colour schemes were red/silver and blue/silver like attached pic.
Decals available through the GPZ Zone in the UK, and aren't expensive.
Nice bike, grab it! :D

I really think the red/silver A2 is a beauty. Worth the extra money by a long way. This bike has been pampered and cared for. Credit to the current owner. I think it is a better proposition, spend the dollars up front rather than over a period of time getting the black one correct.

Thanks for the offer Daisy that would be great as long as you dont have to go to to much trouble,i would like it but the shipping cost from Tassie could be the killer so i am not getting to excited,Thanks and remember dont go out of your way .cheers Garry

Ye 'ol GPz looks hot in black I reckon. Different, but not overdone.
