    "...Koichi only ever did repairs on GT frames. He never built for them. There were a very small number of his National Team bikes that were later repainted to look like GTs so it would not be impossible to find a GT painted frame that was made by Koichi but it would be really rare. Since they copied his design it is kind of hard to tell with the paint on but I can tell looking at the chain stays and seat stays (here author refers to a different bike/frame) that the finishing work is clearly not Koichi's. All the best. B..."

    Apparently this massive repost was built by a student of Master Yamaguchi. Could he and this very reliable source be one and the same?
