Wow! Had not heard that name mentioned in years. 
The name motard came about when peeps started lacing  in 17 inch fronts and puttlng street tires on dual sport motorcycles.  Then came the factory editions, super moto races, bikes like the KTM Duke, 
In about '79 or there abouts.  I laced a 19 front to my 76 XT500 Yamaha and put on street tires. Wow, what a fun bike on the street.
