This thread is for the most memorable and Favourite bike you either had as a lad or still have today. ... or maybe even that Recreation you built up of that bike you owned BITD.
The bike you went to the bike shop to buy those Red AME grips and came back with Black Mushrooms, the bike full of "Grab on" stickers amongst other timely goodness knows what on it.
Some of these bikes will have been Built to bling us all and now there a little less show bling and more lived in with bits and bobs on there. :D

Almost a recreation of the Torker I had stolen as a teenager.

I've been building this for four years, it's slowly been progressing over time, just like I would've done as a kid, bits get swapped out and sometimes swapped back, wheels change, headset swap, cranks swap, various decal sets all done in a fashion of a 13 year year old boy, ie ooooooh that's shiney I like that, on it goes regardless of whether it's 'right'
It's now pretty rusty and the chromes not very happy anymore, but I love it just the way it is, it would take a hell of a lot to make me part with it

The miles covered(and close calls with overtaking vehicles) on this bike to get to ramps 2 towns away. Blew all the money I had on this. Sold to a 'friend' who never settled the balance on it.. Wish i could have another blast on it...
