RD350N1 YPVS wheel colours....?

History Question....

We all know that the 350N1 was made for just a year and in limited numbers.
I also have lots of original brochures and artwork (I know, I'm sad...) that show the bike as only ever having black wheel paint with the silver detail.

My question is this,
Was there ever a 'special edition' or 'dealer special' that came with red wheels...?
My original N1 had red wheels and one of my friends previous bikes had red wheels and from what I can see from both sets of pics, they look like a factory finish...

Can anyone shed any factual light on this...??

Cheers

Yep, agreed on the N2 having red wheels. But... they are different style wheels having the large cutout and smaller spokes...
These were definately the right type of wheel, just red...
