Hope you like them kids - took me long enough to finish them >:D :daumenhoch:

I'm usually not that much for a Haro ( ....... :10_2_12:), but that chrome Master, Madonna mia :2gunsfiring_v1: :daumenhoch:! ....... hope you kept that one! 8)
-
Yep, that chrome and blue one is the fooka that tried to kill me on a concrete pipe a few years ago and gets ridden everywhere, hence the Radchester decal >:D

Nice pair Spen :daumenhoch:
Tbh I wish I had bought that FST off you when it was in bare metal when I PM'd you a while back ::)
-
What beautiful gorls you have there Spen :smitten:

The FST was the Beyonce out of this Destinys Child of Haros... and you let her go :shocked:

I bet Kelly rides better than B so there may be method in his madness. :)
They all look pretty sweet to me TBH. I can't see any seat guts on the Gen 1 - does it have one of those modern posts (which clamp the rails) fitted?
-
nice builds mate, shame to split them :(
-
Good stuff Spen :daumenhoch:
-
They look great Spen :daumenhoch:

Cheers for the compliments guys :coolsmiley:
Unfortunately my wife can easily count to 6 so I had to let one of them go as there's a three more Mongooses and an Ammaco in the lock-up, and I promised I'd keep my habbit to a manageable 5 (one of the Mongooses is my daughter's, even though she's only 2!)
I've had the FST for a couple of years and my mate on here had been after it for a while, so I let him have it for a mates rate as I really wanted it to go to a good home and I also wanted to keep the Sport as I've always wanted something custom and it looks and rides the nuts :smitten: :smitten:
It was tough, but one had to go........ :-\
Still got 2 sets of blue alloy-hubbed Tuffs mind >:D
ps - Ozone, the seat guts are upside down on all my rides, just like we did back in the day..... just a daft habbit of mine :daumenhoch:
-
lovely builds spen, at least you've let the FST go to someone you know :daumenhoch:
-

I had an FST a while back which had Tri-moly tubing instead of the cro-mo used on the Sport and Master models. ;)
-
I had the pleasure of collected them from the coaters...
I loved them NAKED!!! >:D

Well Matt's just sent me this pic of how he's put a few final touches to the bike and it now looks like this - a final couple of tweaks (yes, the seatpost tube decal is still on Del's "to sort" list!) and he's gonna ride the bugger like it was supposed to be - good lad >:D >:D
It left my garage looking like this :daumenhoch:

But with a couple of tweaks already it looks like this :smitten: :smitten: :smitten:
