Most likely an L model as they still had rear drum brakes.

I thought that all manufacturers were using disc's by '84.
Except maybe H-D.

Cid, do you need the drum or just new shoes? New shoes are available from a lot of places, a new drum (if measured out of spec) can be tougher. Usually in eBay though.
