If I had know about this brand as a teenager I’m sure I’d have lusted after one! I don’t think I’ve seen a single Koga on here that I don’t like.

That looks awesome !
Love the different colors and how they match.

I was going to ask .... what's the frame number? Were these Hodaka/Fastrax built like the later bikes?

I would expect a number starting with 'W' on the headtube, but there isn't a number at all. It is a frame built by Miyata from Japan.
