Now that is the question! Ok.....I added on 'survivor' condtion parts to replace the parts that were incorrect but in a survivor state. None of the parts i added are NOS, so if it aint in survivor condition what condition is it? What about if you get a mucky dirty survivor and strip it, regrease it and clean it. Is that classed as a survivor?
Tough one.

I think you're right with 'survivor condition' but not a true survivor in my oppinion (but that means fook all) :LolLolLolLol:
i think you hit the nail on the head with your last question....yes! if you get something that's filthy and clean it up, it's still the original bike and thus a survivor, if you clean it up and re powder or re chrome then it's no longer one in my book, that goes for the parts too.
just my views though mate
munners:
I might leave it in the garden for a month and rough it up a bit. >:D I might get away with it then! :LolLolLolLol:
