BMX1973:

I think it was the first BMX I recall seeing too in the flesh.  :-\ Most of the kids round my way had a Diamond Back. :)

For me its the other way round, the MK1 can be forgiven due to the early stage of BMX and Raleigh's first attempt, the MK2 should've been where they corrected all the original design issues and even copied the Tange geometry? But instead they fooked it up again and for that reason I think its one of the worst things made in BMX

dancetothedrummersbeat:
I never had a burner, but I agree with the above. The MK1 looks sort of cool because of the gusset. The MK2 just looks wrong to me. The rear end geometry is just  :-[

So what's the difference between the:

Tuff

and

Super (with coaster tab)

Was the Super Tuff gold with black tuffs?

Great thread by the way. The night burner and extra burner were always my favourites  :smitten:
