 Always wanted a ProClass as a kid and this is a beaut, but not sure about the blue Jofster :-\
 Love the clean lines on the Redline
 The paint and decals on the green Master are fabulous still after all this time
 Good grief that yellow Performer is fookin lush, end of
 The Zimma is mad as a box of frogs and ridiculously heavy in the flesh
 The purple people eater is crazy but looks fantastic
 Sorry not a fan of anything Voris Dixon, but those SA hubs are absolutely fantastic and I love it for those!

 To be honest Ed i took this comment with a pinch of salt yesterday but i actually hadn't realised you had entered a bike in BOTM yourself .  I just think to pick fault with somebody else's build in the 'Vote Off' thread is unnecessary . At the end of the day it's meant to be a bit of fun but hey ho ....... each to their own i guess .
 
 Im not really arsed whether my build comes first or last , the comments by RADsters in my build thread mean more to me than winning or losing BOTM  ;)
- 
				OK... I want that one. 
 Job Done
 
 Tried that approach but wanted every one of them :2funny:
