The information next to the red Tecate mentions disk brakes. Didn't those come with a drum on the front?

Yes sir, my red 84 came with drum up front. Didn't all 84s have drum?

The description better fits the 85 Tecate. It came with a front disc brake and aluminum wheels. The 84 came with a front drum brake and steel wheels--and man are they heavy. The 85 also came with higher footpegs and a redesigned rear suspension. The carb was kept the same size--34mm--but the slide was changed to an "R" bottom for better air flow. The 84 fork boots were replaced with rubber dust shields. The pipe was also redesigned.

Didn't realise they made so many Kawasaki 3 wheelers. My dad has 3 of them. I will restore them one day I hope!
