It may be still a Burner but it is still a BMX and that is all that counts.

Looks really nice, great resto job  :4_17_5:

Think its a bit unfair to think rad is anti Burner..
I can relate to the different burners so much more than a VDC, JMC etc

So well done top resto.  :daumenhoch:

I have great respect for any sort of build with the time and effort. It looks good but I cant help thinking, what the hell were raleigh doing with the strange frame geometry  :shocked: Can anyone please explain..
