Every time I see an old Redline like this I get 'that' feeling that got me into riding. Thanks

I can't believe I missed this !!!
Simply stunning John "wantit". that brings so many memory's flooding back (my first BMX was a MXII of the Same age and colour)
I need to ask though.... What the fook is a "NOS re-issue" ?? :chin:
:LolLolLolLol:

This is one of the greatest bikes on RAD or anywhere for that matter.
I'd love to see it with IRC tyres...
