Title: Diamond Back just finished
Post by: JJR on June 22, 2006, 07:26 PM: I've seen lots of DB bikes the first years I raced (82-83).
So, it was a must to have one ;D
Here's my 83 Silver Streak powdered in clear blue.
Little different then most Silver Streaks I think, but I like it!

For a fairly cheap bike (in nowadays standards) that looks the absolute nuts, and really stands out at me.

I do love my old memories riding DB's and with that being so different, think that one may be on the cards for me in time.

Real quality, the UNI sets it off a treat, thanks for sharing (I have ups and downs and need a kick sometimes on builds, like a lot on here i'm sure, that has given me one big boot up the back side, thanks again)

I love tuff's on show bikes - but you're a racer...

get some alloy's on there - no one raced with Z's so not quite why they are so popular now... will look a treat. (btw, I love the MRD you have in your collection)

Nice to see someting a little different - good work fella.
