Mazdaspeed,

Yeah, the owner just put those on there. There was no "special edition" 93. There were a limited number of R1's in the color Competition Yellow Mica, so that could be considered a special edition, but none ever had special badges.

I see you go to UCI in your description? That's cool...I went to UCI.
