the chrome was good but a slight pitting around the GUSSET!, I was undecided for a while but decided to do it white as I can get powdercoating done by one of my friends cheep. I polished the tange 125 cups and anodised by Paul at CCA. 8) A chrome  BYZ 501 will be coming next!!!  8)

Looks fooking ace Sham, I haven't been this excited looking at a new build for absolutely ages.  Can't wait to see it put together.  Nice padset by the way  ;)

Us Yamaha boys have to stick together as there are not many of us around.

Before I got my first bmx I had a yammy BYZ, but it had a big mono shock spring thing and was well heavy - its was sort of bmxish, more grifter like.
