Title: Might have got myself an E.T
Post by: sparky on February 04, 2011, 08:30 AM
Ok, a friend of mine might have access to an E.T but since I know very little about them could someone point out what to look for.

I understand it's a full survivior but I thought I read they did a couple of variations, all the same I'll snap it up if I can.

Thanks,

Mark

Look for quite possibly the crappest bmx you can imagine, and then pop your magical tinted aviators on and see how it changes into the most iconic BMX in the world EVER, much the same as when a fat swamp donkey catches you gaze in a bar, add 4 pints, simmer for 1 hr and she will appear to have metamophasised into a stunning beauty who is gagging for your cock.

Hope this helps  :daumenhoch:

You need another joke Mr.Pickle....

Everytime... its Burner this... Burner that...

Don't forget there's a lot of Burner collectors who use radbmx... financially support radbmx (site supporters) and support the MK events...

The Burner thing has been a constant on this site since I joined 6+ years ago... it was funny for a while, now it seems the 'in thing' again...

I started and finished my 1980's a Facebook group with a Raleigh Extra Burner and it was the first bike I restored when I got back into BMX... why some of you feel the constant need to ridicule a bike that many of us started our bmx lives on...  ::)

We know!!! they were poorly designed... We know!! they were poorly made... but they were the first BMX bike for 1000's of kids BITD...

Find another record... this one seem's to be stuck...  :knuppel2: :police:

People still slate Burners, is this news? I had one, loved it but yes I still have a pop at em but its only cos I know you, if I didnt, I wouldn't, its love in a way, do fancy meeting up in a layby near Castleford? we could have a bum or something to help relax you

I'm about as laid back as they come mate..

I just get narked at the 'constant' slaggin.... there are guys who throw £1000's of ££'s into the Old Skool scene restoring Raleigh Burners... yet on here there is small group who can't help themselves.

"bummerword".... "crappy burners"... "bummer fans"....

There were far worse bmx bikes produced in the 1980's than the Raleigh Burner... yet because the 'Burner' is a BIG name (you cannot argue its place in UK BMX history!) its the constant target...

And don't for one minute just think its me that gets a little cheesed off at these constant digs!

There are guys who openly post up burner slaggin threads on here and then come over to BURNERWORLD to sell their stock piles of BMX parts...  :idiot2: :knuppel2:

Its all good... if its all BMX....

Several BOTY's... and several BOTM's go to prove that its just the minority that can't see past the end of their 'posh' bikes to see a classic  :Great_Britain: icon....  :4_17_5:

ps - Diggler I'll be round in half an hour  :smitten: :smitten:

Still think your going way over board Dave, at the end of the day its just peoples opinion....some people don't like SE's, some Kuwi's.........have I once said I don't like burners? No.......it was all I had as a kid but there's no getting away from the fact they were poorly thought out and badly made, the MK1 came out on the back of the huge BMX wave but there was no excuse for the absolute piece of shyte the MK2 that was a crime against bmx.

I love a Burner me :smitten:.....and can't help but get all defensive and protective over the humble machine when it gets it's daily mocking :(

It was and still is the affordable bike for chavs on a budget 8)

.....and for the record....the extra burner was 'extra' because it had extra paint on it....which made it extra special on my council estate  :daumenhoch:

Leave the Burner alone :knuppel2:

Fooking ummmers i thought the thread was asking for info on E.T kuwies :shocked:
Along the line it spammed off on to burners some how.
Can the mods sort out the spam and severely reprimand the spammers then get the thread back on track

Sparky as far as i know there were 4 versions.
The very rare unlicensed one that was actually a kz1 made up by everything bikes owner howie cohen. The guy that made the bikes up for the film.
Then there is the 2 licensed versions from Kuwahara.
Lastly the apollo toy shop issue. Someone put a pic of that up earlier.
Here's the 2 universal picture releases.
