My first build ............. finally !
NORTY40:
Well it's taken a while but my first build is finally done :-[
It's a 1983 MT Silverfox, this is actually my FIRST/ORIGINAL bike from BITD , many long hours were spent onboard her :smitten:
She was originally chrome but sadly due to poor storage ( located in between my Mum and Dad's house and the shed, open to all the elements :( ) she had suffered badly . A full strip down and repowder was the order of the day .
Go easy RADsters, it is my first build ( there's 3 or 4 more in the pipeline ;) ) I have done it how I wanted it so it is obviously not factory spec/ era correct etc , but I am quite pleased how it turned out .
I actually took the pics 4 days ago when everything wasn't quite set up , but i couldn't wait to get it outside in the sunshine and take a few pics ( hence no chain , wonky levers etc :D) She is all done now but the weather isn't being kind with no signs of improvement so you will have to make do with the sunny pics as i wanted to put it on the site before MK.
Less of the waffle ......Here goes ..... :-[
Number plate and trademark stand ;D
What do you reckon RADster's :-\ Comments welcome good :) or bad :'(
I think the colour coded bike stands could be a trademark of my future builds :LolLolLolLol:

As a complette bike its cool as fook, I don't like them seats though, they look too far forward and ruin the flow of the bike. Nowt you can do though as its fixed to the post.
I know its got a lot of what would be classed as cheap parts on it but the whole lot as a package really works if you ask me, looks stunning. The quality of the build looks really good to.
Honest enough for you? :)
daz bmx it!:
Nice first build bud :daumenhoch: looks fresh,personally I'd get some gumwall/skinwall comp III's on her :daumenhoch:
