Title: 98 Hoffman EK
Post by: ad240z on October 26, 2013, 12:48 PM: Pulled my Hoffman EK out of the garage for a spin round the block for the first time in a while......

I always wanted one as EK was my hero as a kid. Bought off e-bay a few years ago.

Standard 98 EK Complete . Think its as it came out of box - but in used condition. Tyres and grips are a little worn - but then agan so was EK himself.................

He was living in London - only had the fecker for 3 months before he swapped it on on something else - gotta say I had a few go's on it when I visited one weekend - way too heavy - weighed more than a built SOB ffs :LolLolLolLol:
