its off to Big Dan for a clearcoat Roberto  :daumenhoch:

This one will only be ridden on occasion... especially as I have been banned from endos by Steve incase I snap it again  ;D

pickle:
yeah he did an amazing job on that break, but i wouldn't want to do too much on it once you've built it up.  Be okay for cruising though surely?  ???

ED209:
Yep - hope so.

I needed a DP as its the bike I rode as a kid and the bike that got me back into it ... and unlike the last one ... is 100% mine  :daumenhoch:
