Thought i would start this thread to document all the different variations of Mark II bikes that have been found.I'm sure there are more of them yet to be dug out of those Barn's, basements and closed stores....
first are the Murray catalog bikes
first are the Murray catalog bikes
1969 MkII Coaster 20x20 only made for 1969
1969 Murray Mark II 20x20" # spd. only offered for 1 year.
1969 coaster MKII 20X16"
1969 16x20 3 spd
1969 MKII 5 spd 16x20
1970 Murray Catalog bikes
1970 MarkII 5 speed the only change on the 5 speed bikes from 69 to 70 was the sissy bar and seat!
1971 Murray catalog bikes...*Note*...These must have been only offered for less then a year. As I have only seen
one Coaster 1971 Eliminator during my 18 years of collecting. Also *NOTE* I have never seen any retail outlet MKII's offered in 1971, so I think that in 71 these Murray catalog bikes were the only two offered. if anyone has documentaion showing anything different please let me know!
*Also note*the black outline and lettering on the guard instead of white, and the different frame decal & BMA decal, and wald reflector pedals and solid yellow not glitter seat*...and no 5 speed was offered only 3 speed black, and orange coaster brake.
sticker on guard was added.
JC PENNYS BIKES for 1969
1969 coaster swinger has in correct seat & grips..
1969 Swinger 3 spd
1969 5 spd Swinger
1970 Penny's Swinger
This 1971Spring/Summer penny's catalog is the last one the MkII swingers are shown. notice no reflector pedals or BMA decal. leads me to think these were left over from 1970 stock..
Otasco seems to have the most variations, 6. it seems they changed all 3 models for the 2 years they offered these bikes.
