Title: 1980 Invader 340
Post by: Tory944 on June 02, 2015, 03:27:49 PM

  Hey guys...    wondering how many of you have or have seen any 80' 340 Invaders floating around.  I've seen plenty of 79's, but not many (if any 80' 340's).  I've had a few 440's that year, but not the lil' brother.   I have an opportunity to pick up an 80' 340 to add to the herd and wondering what you guys think?

Tory, I think that the 79s and 80s are very similar with the exception of the speedometer pick-up.

And hood paint is different also.   I have a 1980 Kaw 340 invader lol.
Don't see many of them , kinda rare to see for sale at least in Ohio ! Me and my dad picked it up 20 yrs ago for 500$
It's in good shape , I'll see if I can snap some pics if I can get to it lol.   Sorry tho  not for sale.  But will trade for interceptor lmao! Jk  -mike

Thanks guys, I was thinking the 80' 340 wasn't one of the more common model/yr.  I will know by the weekend whether the sled ends up in my garage. lol. 8)

Last year for the 340 Invader. Hard to get parts as the racers were grabbing all the pistons and cylinders for racing.

I have a couple spare 340 Invader motors if you need any parts Tory.
