Awhile back a bike determined to be a 73-75 Super came up on German eBay with different decals. They appeared to be a sort of hybrid or transitional from the 73-74 decals to the 77 and later, mostly like the earlier set but with world team stripes, maybe a few other details (it's been a while and my memory isn't always perfect). In the end I remember some consensus that it had european graphics, different from what was offered in the US.

What I'm getting at is,

Do the decals on this bike suggest it started life in the US?

Have any more early-mid 70s Supers come to light with the euro decals?

I'm gathering bits to restore a 73-75 Super (already at least once repainted) that started life in europe (Amsterdam) and would like very much to find a set of these euro decals. Greg? Anybody?
