Hello All - I recently came across my vintage Suzuki frame and fork BMX bike while helping my mom move. I am also curious how you verify the date, I looked for a serial number and wasn't able to find anything. The big question is, did I ruin the value of this bike by painting out blue? not sure why I thought it was a good idea but when you are 14 years old... thanks for any insights you may have, R.IMG_8991.HEICIMG_8987.HEICIMG_8973.HEIC
