My Aero Pro Burner Project
Retrodan72:
Looking at the bigger pics you've posted, the decals look more original than I first thought, and I've loved at the Raleigh brochure pics on Google (see below) and the position of the Pro Burner decal looks correct, I think it's wrong on my frame. Lol
Top pic is the 1983 model, below is the 1984 model.

The frame and forks may just want a polish though.

I reckon it's just the light Dan...the decals look OG to me. Keep the original decals if you can, as previously said new decals never look quite like the originals .
I reckon they were making so many bitd as demand was so high because of the way BMX blew up, that they got a bit slapdash with decals....I have looked at many Haro frames looking for the correct position for the Bob Haro decal on the rear stays...Looked at 3 OG frames and they were all in different positions! :daumenhoch:

Decals & chrome look sweet. Should make for a great build 8) :daumenhoch:
