Ok ok if I'm being honest I would just change the grips to something older , like Hunt Wilde or Winner circle , then it would 100 percent sweetolicious  :-*  ;)

That looks cool as fook, my mate had a yellow one when with motomags when we were kids he hand painted  the mags red. It was way out of date then as everyone had light race bikes and his weighed a fooking ton im sure them motomags are made of lead. We hit a big ply jump together we had hade on a building site when we were kids and my bars somehow ended up in his front wheel, needless to say that went tits up. AHH those were the day before health an safety when someone would come to check on the site and you would get the cool chase. Nobody chases kids anymore they would be stoned to death now and branded a peado .AHH THE GOOD OLD DAYS  :surprise:
