It was an utter fluke - I got it from my brother in law after it had sat in his parents basement for 25 years + it was one of the Ltd.Ed. GL Plus ones ( 500 only ) but I had to recoat as the Ni-Bronze was a goner... He really wanted it brought back to life, and I said I was looking for one - the only condition was to ride it, not sell it... which I didn't have a problem with 8)
If you check out all the bikes on Steves site that will give you some amazing colour-way ideas...
£16 for a early one is fookin result though eh... :smitten:
skki3330:
Mate that is a result and not to sell but ride i bet thats easy with these bikes. :coolsmiley:
I have decided on what i wanna do IF i cant afford a re chrome im gunna use superbikedan for a nice white powdercoat as i have a blue anodized headset and crank ring holder again i will get both re done. 8)

That rare creature the Superus Bikeus Danus painted mine and I tried to kill him by wanting an impossible colour ( to make the DP Ni-Bronze... we got close but Firebird Steve is still on a mission for perfection as he has a Ltd Ed frame as well he wants to paint) and losing the forks when I sent him the frame ( I never packed them in the parcel... :idiot2: they are now silver... and the frame is a pewter kind of colour - ;D WHATEVER )
If you want the best powdercoat... go to Dan :daumenhoch: ( just don't forget to put ALL the bits in drrrrrrrrrr )
I'm keeping mine as is for the summer... then I have plans for a repaint.
I'm still trying to get in touch with the lads I used to ride with hoping to hear then say "yeah my bikes still in the shed... do you want it?" :angel:
