I made my own a Vincent Airzone with welded on plate and Bright yellow water board plastic tubing used for the skid rail. What fun we had on our tanks.

I also thought they were the best bashguard design (which is why i got one) but that was were the good ended. Everything else about the frame was awful!

FFS you're like a Hawk... a Robbohawk... sitting on a little post.

Its an 'early' 90s bike ( duh ) but the DESIGN ( the graphics ) are 80s influenced ... look at any of the magazines that came out at the end of the 80s and you will understand... distorted photocopier influences... cut and paste stuff... bit of Neville Brody influence in there ( when he art directed The Face... )

so after I've blown you Robster... feel free to BLOW ME BACK :2funny:
