They were mass produced, made well and everyone remembers them, hence this is why a lot of guys starting out home in on them, they're cheap to buy, easy to resto, and there are plenty of spares and info available for people to use and also 2 very established Burner forums.
Just last week, a guy joined RB.com, and his first post was selling a 1984 Andy 'Ruffle' Team Burner, and he wanted £490 ono for it. The guy hadn't any pics, so I didn't really know what the bike was, so I kindly (as I do on here) explained that he need to add a pic or the Mods would remove.
He replied with 'How do I do that?', not 'Hi mate, can you tell me how to upload pics please, I'm new to this', so I guided him.
He obviously struggled, and no pics appeared, so another member kindly asked the seller to email him the pics, which he did, and the member added pics for the seller.
The bike wasn't a 1984 Andy Ruffell, which if had been a TAP would have been a fair price, it was in fact a 1985 Team Mag Styler - worth about £200-£250 tops, it had a lot of original parts replaced with cheap anomalies.
So, myself and another member kindly pointed out that his bike was worth half as much as he thinks it's worth, then he totally spat his dummy, and threw a barrage of abuse at me, then prompting Bright1975 to get involved in shooting me (just cos he's a troll).
I nearly fooked the forum off completely as a result, but thought, why the fook should I? I've been on there, and built Burners for 6 years.
I know exactly how you feel Nick.
It's comforting to know that you can always run back to the safe bosom of :radbmxsmilie: to escape these throbbers.

Just made me angry that my honest answer was greeted with such malice!
Group left now, he'll think he has the moral victory but I have my dignity...........FFS :LolLolLolLol:
Anyway I'm off into the cave for a few frames of pool and a San Miguel or 3.
Love you all :LolLolLolLol:

love it Nick (you not the other) That Burner is a proper POS in all honesty, i've never liked the MKII and have never hidden the fact.
As for Steph? well best i don't say as he'll be watching and taking screen shots for his photobucket file ;D
