Did the 1985 GL1200A originally have a radiator grill cover?

Can anyone tell me if the ORIGINAL 1985 GL1200A Aspencade came with a radiator grill?

The chrome/lighted radiator grill on mine is so heavily rusted and pitted that I would like to remove it.

I am trying to keep it original.

Thank you,

Rod, I just dug out the original from my '86 Interstate. It is black metal. Not sure if the Aspencade was the same, but I suspect it was.

Yes, the grill was black on my 85 Aspencade.

All years, all models had the black, diamond pattern grill. Should be easy to find one. Lots of people removed the original to put the chrome on.

yes, the black mesh type grille is standard
